I think the relay issue is very serious but I'm not sure there is any 
satisfying solution.
Documenting it is probably a good start.

There are also some issues aboout RFC3068, as there are very little 
public relays
available today. We need to understand if this is just because we are 
still very
early in IPv6 deployment or if it is because there is a fundamental problem
in the model.

As about multicast, I tend to agree with Pekka, yes multicast would be a 
nice thing to
have, but I think we need first to undertand how critical it is
in the various scenario documents.
