no it's not, because shipworm doesn't provide stable addresses under these conditions either. and an ISP that filters 6to4 can also filter shipworm. > In any case we need > to be forcing the system to provide uninhibited IPv6 service to the > applications.

I don't know how much 'forcing' we can do, but providing customers with extra flexibility in how they assign addresses won't hurt. And while I would like to believe that ISPs that impair customers' ability to use the net will suffer, current experience doesn't bear that out.
