I think it would make a useful informational document.

Personally, I find this approach "obvious" - but that's only because 
I've already been through the process of wondering how to bring IPv6 to
our VLAN infrastructure (which was served by a VLAN router that was
conveniently declared as "End of Life" just one OS release before
the general introduction of IPv6), and ended up doing it exactly
this way - the existing IPv4 router stays, a new box for IPv6 only
VLAN routing is built (which is not as powerful as the IPv4 router, but
sufficient for v6).
