    Description

      We would appreciate it to extend QHostAddress::SpecialAddress with two values like this:

      • MulticastInterfaceLocalIPv6 (FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:1)
      • MulticastLinkLocalIPv6 (FF02:0:0:0:0:0:0:1)

      They are defined in RFC 4291 "2.7.1. Pre-Defined Multicast Addresses".
      What do you think about that? If this is a good idea we can create a commit but we would like to have feedback first.
