I've certainly seen ISPs suggesting that they would do this. But a quick search 
turned up this, dated 2/8/2011:

http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-512#end_site

   5.4.1. Assignment address space size

   End Users are assigned an End Site assignment from their LIR or
   ISP. The size of the assignment is a local decision for the LIR
   or ISP to make, using a minimum value of a /64 (only one subnet
   is anticipated for the End Site).

So, is anyone willing to bet that ISPs won't use /64s?
