Unicast-based multicast addresses allow you to use your global unicast
prefix to create your group id, making it globally unique since your
global prefix is globally unique.
In IPv4, we didn't have enough bits to do anything like this.

Subject: "RFC 3306 provides for IPv6 unicast-based multicast addresses."
I am looking at this in documentation and support page.
Does this mean we can, without any tunneling, multicast across the
unicast-only IPv6 global public Internet ?
Is this new? We couldn't do the same in IPv4 multicasting right ?
