+1.

As a co-author, I don't see a real operational need for this at the moment.
Why is this not something that we can define later on in its own draft,
once we get more support for it and consensus that it is a useful thing to
do?

As an implementer, this really doesn't look like something I would want to
implement at the moment. Adding support for it would require writing a lot
of new code, and it would end up being unused anyway, because our
implementation prefers native IPv4 over 464xlat.
