You can see the only reason to deploy IPv6 to keep the freedom of end to end transparency is now non-exsitent.
Given that all currently available operating systems fully support IPv6,
The reality is that there is no one with meaningful operational experience of IPv6.
This assumption is completely unfounded, and quite obviously wrong (I know at least one counter-example). [..]
and none of them support the modifications necessary to "help the NAT gateway", I can't see how this would be a step forward. Read the draft. It is implemented and working on NETBSD5.0.
It's not committed - and even if it was, the amount of NetBSD machines out there is not relevant for home user deployments, where IPv4 shortage hits first. Come back when Microsoft has implemented this, and it's operational relevant enough that it's time to start discussing its impact on address policy.
