I don't see why not. Note that, as I pointed out the other day, NTT is pushing 
the work in MIF as a requirement for them to not deploy network prefix 
translation and is specifically pointing to this draft as their alternative. 
Their scenario is a mandated multihoming of every Japanese home. Their scenario 
is common DSL last mile that connects each of the ISPs (including NTT's ISP 
business) and also a separate video-on-demand network. So every home has at 
least the national video-on-demand service, which is from a topology/upstream 
perspective a separate service provider operated by NTT but only provides 
access to the video content, plus as many ISPs as it wants to contract with. 
Every home is multihomed, every ISP including the video service implements BCP 
38, and if we don't sort out the issues that Arifumi has been wrestling with 
for however long, they plan to deploy NAT66 to the home.
