Hey folks,
It's not that an IPv6 home router has one WAN interface acting as a router while another interface on the home router is a host. The problem is also not about a home router or a router sitting in the Internet core or the WAN. Any router has one or more network interfaces over which the router performs routing. But when the network interface is acquiring an IPv6 address, it is then the interface is acting as a host. Sorry, I didn't read the draft-kohno-ipv6-prefixlen-p2p-01.txt yet but the concept seems fine to me to use a /127. We may have to make sure the language in the document is tight because IPv6 has so many restrictions like a /64 prefix length for SLAAC addresses and the like.
