Thanks for the helping dispel some of my confusion.  However,
Bert's message referred to draft-ietf-ipv6-node-requirements-07.txt.
I'll be satisfied if the update to draft-ietf-ipv6-node-requirements-07.txt
explicitly references ipForwardFullCompliance or
ipForwardReadOnlyCompliance.  Otherwise, there's a possibility for
confusion with ipForwardCompliance from 2096, which does require
the IPv4 stuff.

I just want the documents to specifically identify which compliance
statements are required or recommended.
