You are right in that you have to setup some routing on a router (:-), and
that for the given case this results in a default route. We do not want to
make people think that's the same as the IPv4 default route.

Maybe we can have a v6uplink variable that's only used with
ip6mode=router?

Of course some more general setup that allows putting config info for IPv6
routers into  rc.conf wouldn't be bad either. (I hate ifconfig.*
etc. files!)
