Which method would you recommend as an alternative?

This method is lacking because you might have several routers eg. using VRRP and the backup router will not learn 
anything from a relay on the primary.

I am running into venders that do not support injection of a delegated route when operating as a DHCPv6 relay (or 
server for that matter).
Brocade supports this, but I am not finding this as part of any of the RFC's.  This is to deliver home ISP service, so 
it is very important or return packets won't go to the client unless the route is manually added as a routing protocol 
is not an option.  There should be a MUST activity for this somewhere.

Anyone know what gives?
