Well, the main unsolved problem I see is

 - (small to medium) enterprise customers that want to change their ISP 
   without renumbering their internal network

For larger enterprises, I see "acquiring their own IPv6 address space"
(either by means of becoming a member of their local RIR and grabbing
a "provider" allocation, or by means of IPv6 PI space) "and using BGP"
as the answer to that problem.
