=> I am doing that (I was busy with the eclipse :-).

   I can see some considerable problems if the client initiates
  contact with the DNS servers since typically ND & stateless config
  would probably be done at kernel level.  Usually DNS related stuff
  happens at user level in my experience.  Mixing the two might be a bit
  of a headache, but not impossible.

=> fortunately I do ND prefix discovery & stateless config at user level.

   a) The host machine pushes the information into the DNS system.

=> it is the thing I have in my TODO.

   b) The DNS system pulls the information from the host machines as needed.

=> I believe in this case an ICMPv6 service will be better (there are
many proposals and some implementations of this)...
