So this is such a radically simple idea on the surface, it's hard not to 
like it.

On the otherhand, it would be interesting to see if done, how much more 
load would suddenly be shifted to AS112 nodes by default.  (I still 
believe there are 6bone nodes out there asking for resolution of 3ffe::/16 
addresses.)

What do as112-operators here think?
