Sure if you can provide a solution for PI addressing then you will solve many issues in one... the question for you is then how these people "justify their need" - will anyone who would be able to get a unique hinden/haberman draft prefix be eligible for your PI prefix? How do we control or throttle the allocations and not regret it later? With current IPv6 adoption we don't have a problem though... (!)
