No site-locals, please. 

RFC3879 Deprecating Site Local Addresses. C. Huitema, B. Carpenter.
        September 2004. (Format: TXT=24142 bytes) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)

ULAs would be one option, but just having link-local active also helps
(I've locked out myself a number of times of IPv4, and being able to get
back via link-local was useful, even if slightly cumbersome due to the 
interface-dependent syntax "fe80::1:2:3%eth0" on the client side)
