That's a good description of why the IETF designed SHIM6, which requires
no cooperation from any router or ISP and scales well, should cost little
or nothing, and will work for mobile devices too, on two conditions

1. It becomes widely deployed
2. Firewalls allow the SHIM6 extension header.

I don't believe that this is really a topic for homenet, however.
