oh, that's silly. developing mechanisms to allow apps to cope with a mixture
of v4 and v6 is certainly within IETF's business.
the reason it won't be listened to is because having apps do their own addressing
and routing is simply too difficult for most implementors. it will be easier to
arrange for v6 everywhere (by shipping 6to4 and/or Teredo drivers with the app)
than to build ad hoc networks at layer 7.
