Heiner, the IETF has said it doesn't want to come up with any more clever
ways to help organizations continue to squeeze more life out of IPv4
addresses. It will help with transition away from IPv4. Thus IPv4 address
depletion isn't a favored topic, and neither is making significant changes
to Internet routing and/or addressing architecture in response. I suspect
that ideas for routing multiple namespaces efficiently could be worth
considering, but I would generalize it beyond just IPv4 and IPv6.  What
else could you route?
