[...] Since the fact that the shim signalling worked indicatesthat the shim header isn't filtered this should work without trouble.

The last sentence does not follow. Firewalls may accept just finepackets with a shim6 extension header but no data, but could (andI'd expect many WOULD) drop packets with shim6 ext header WITH data.


Why??

But if that's true: all the more reason to support suppressing theshim header for rewritten packets. :-)
