Any takers?
There's been a fairly comprehensive state-of-the-art about the possible NAT-to-NAT combinations and which technique to use to traverse them, when possible, in a paper called: "NATCracker: NAT Combinations Matter" You can find the pdf here: http://www.peerialism.org/download/Roverso-NATCracker.pdf The table at page 4 should give you an idea of how complex this problem can turn out to be. Given that, my take is that there's no a best way to solve this problem in general, but each combination requires special care.
