Joel,

Limited domain (if you will) can be also build in the overlay - unless you
point me to any standards track RFC which says otherwise. If I connect over
ISP with v6 I can run my own limited domain over such ISP between hosts in
my sites.

Of course ISP may recognize that I am actually sending v6 packets with
extension headers and drop those ... but this is not a concern for this
thread nor for IETF. In such a case I will would switch an ISP :)

Cheers,
R.
