I agree with this.

At this time, I disagree with that. It is indeed a good idea, what I called a slam dunk before, "THE" multihoming solution that solves all three of the aspects of multihoming which are big honkin' setup, home/soho and mobile. The reason I disagree  is that nobody has provided a clue in how to make it work so far. As several other people mentionned before, we have a collective responsibility in delivering something that will get IPv6 multihoming started, especially the part that is multihomed in IPv4 already. Pursuing that elusive universal solution is definitely interesting, but unless we see a draft that appears it can fly is IMHO out of scope here.
