My point is that tunnel brokers (plus prefix delegation?) might make 
sense beyond isolated hosts as well. For instance, it might make sense for
a home router.

The configuration isn't the elusive "zero", but it can be simple enough to
be used.

I wonder if there is any data on the fraction of the existing tunnel
broker clients serve more than one host. (It does at the office in France.)
