Has an IPv6 link-local multicast been allocated as well?

I thought there was a suggestion on the floor to also
name the protocol something other than *DNS i.e. to point out that
if offers a similar name resolution service to DNS but limited to
a single link (and happens to reuse DNS packet formats).
Thus "Link local ... name lookup" might be a reasonable name.
