I agree that it's a big deal. IPv6 has some "well-known short addresses" to alleviate this issue like accesing well-known broadcast addresses etc with `fe80::` prefix, but it's sad that they don't have one for the gateway (something like `fe80::1`). I know that there's a reason for that like supporting multiple network connections, but just have a shortcut for the "first gateway" at least which is the most common.
