Personal opinion only...

A key part of the intent of Internet Drafts is that they be
generally available to anyone interested on the Internet.  I
understand the motivations for experiments and demonstrations
but, if something is posted that is deliberately inaccessible to
someone who cannot not or will not use IPv6, it invalidates the
function of the document as a generally-accessible I-D and
presumably could result in a process problem (or appeal) if
there were any attempt to move it into an IETF consensus process.

Please do demonstrations and experiments in another way.
