Make DHCPv6 respond with Remote-ID (opt 37)

Hi,
For DHCPv4, Remote-ID and Circuit-ID are both sub-options of option 82. This means they are both included in responses by-default.
For DHCPv6, these are split into two separate options; option 18 (Interface-ID) and option 37 (Remote-ID). By-default, only Interface-ID is included in responses.
Is there a simple way to “force” isc-dhcpd to include both options in all responses? (and not just option 18).
My first stab was to do this:
if exists dhcp6.remote-id {
option dhcp6.remote-id = option dhcp6.remote-id;
}
… but that didn’t seem to change anything, at least that I could see.
