To some extent -- but there also needs to be some thinking involved to
make sure that the interface can actually handle future cases.

For example -- how is multicast going to interact with IGMP on ethernet
switches?  How is address resolution going to be done (current patches
seem to assume that stateless IPv6 link-local addresses contain the
ethernet address, which is not valid if RFC 3041 is used)?  etc
