DHCPv6 PD is one of the means suggested by RFC 7934, yes. I'm not sure that the folks asking for IA_NA would be happy with IA_PD though. The reason most often cited for wanting DHCPv6 is that it fits well with tracking practices and systems that are built to support on-request addressing and networks assigning individual IP address(es) to devices. DHCPv6 PD provides request-based addressing, but it wouldn't do much to interoperate with those tracking systems because they deal with addresses, not subnets. From that perspective, ND snooping might be more likely to interoperate well.
