[j-nsp] EX series and ipv6 multicast / mld.. Doesn't forward with IGMP-SNOOPING enabled

Or another question..

IGMP has been replaced by ICMPv6 messages from what I've read, so my thought
was that MLD replaces IGMP snooping. However all multicast that I'm sending
is flooded to every port which makes me believe MLD snooping isn't in the EX
platform just yet. Cisco has MLD snooping, but is that really just MLD?

I'm stuck in the IPv6 hell right now where nothing is documented well and
open for interpretation.
