I believe that if we have any consensus, it is as Marcelo mention focusing on solutions for an "edge site", i.e. a site whose routers do not relay packets on behalf of other sites. As Noel noted, any short term work is constrained by the "catenet/datagram" model of IPv6; we could debate at length whether this is a bug or a feature. The limitations are clear: we can use multi-homing for redondancy, but the amount of policy they can exercize is by and large limited to picking the correct exit router in their own site.
