I am just interested in getting rid of this "Set this unknown environment 
variable and it speeds up the whole desktop for most people" behaviour.

In reality, hardly anyone uses IPv6 currently. And there are many flawed DNS 
servers out there (apparantly, my Linksys router is one, as is the one at my 
office). 

Why can't we have a checkbox in KControl "Enable IPv6 lookups" that defaults 
to unchecked?
