Did the issue with --proto you mentioned in the bug (eg
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.openvpn.devel/7160/focus=7165 )
get fixed as well?  Then it would be a lot simpler to enable IPv6
support because we wouldn't need any UI changes to make the user
indicate that they want IPv6 explicitly (which would trigger udp6/tcp6).
