Subject: netfilter6: REJECT target?

Hi,

Is there some reason the IPv6 Netfilter REJECT target hasn't been merged 
during the last 2 years it has existed in Netfilter's patch-o-matic.

(it hasn't been pushed for merging, sure, ...)

Just wondering why we are keeping Netfilter6 crippled like this.  Unless 
we can properly use it to reject packets with ICMPv6/TCP-RST, it's pretty 
close to useless :-(
