I think that before you have this discussion here, you probably ought to talk to the softwires and/or behave working groups, or perhaps the routing area directors, about your proposal, and get them to agree that it's a worthwhile solution.   A lot of people are talking about solutions in this space, and I think you need to get the routing end of this nailed down before you start talking about major changes to DHCPv6 to support it.
