Actually, I suspect that operator hostility to 6to4 is high enough that devising some stealthier means of making their dumb IPv4-only networks serve our higher purposes will be necessary.  I joke that we should use a stylized audio feedback that reminds the listener of an old acoustic modem when signaling the establishment of such a tunnel, because that's a pretty good metaphor for what we'd be doing.

I suspect it wouldn't take much to adapt 6RD to these ends.  Remember, 6RD tunnels do *not* need to be terminated by the provider network.  They can be terminated by a third-party with minimal human interface burden.  Perhaps I should find the time to write a draft on the topic.
