IMHO even a traveling laptop with PPP needs to be able to subnet.   
I've lost count of the number of times I've needed to do this in IPv4
but been stuck with a single /32.  I have also lost count of the number
of times I've used a laptop as a router in the days when I had a /28
routed to me.  Built in NAT capability for IPv4 that allows a single PPP
connection to be shared over wireless seems fairly common these days. 
We need the equivalent capability in IPv6, just without NAT.
