True that you can not really setup port forwarding on your CPE / home
and get any meaningful results.
You can however set up port forwarding on a port or two in a CGN
device's public IPv4s to allow incoming sessions to be established
towards a subscriber's private IPv4 address.

It could even be managed from some web interface/portal by customers
themselves.

Have you tried setting up an ISP from scratch under RIPE's last-/8
policies lately? It totally works! (But last-/8 is going to run out too)
IPv4 run-out is awesome. :D
