I guess I just wanted to rename some keys and make sure that they stay
fixed. But I agree with your point about easier extensibility in the
future. So if the existing keys will never change (unless the reported
protocol version in the first line changes?), I can update the module to
simply reuse the same key names.

The reason why this would be nice is that it would limit the link-local
addresses to only those which are actually used by babeld. Because
currently I just have to report them all (I could cross-reference that
with interfaces in babeld configuration, but I think this would be too
much added complexity, so I just report all of them).
