Granted. The reaction of the customers - who know nothing about 
DFZs and RIR politics -  of both the filtering and the filtered 
operators, will be something along the lines of: 
"Bugger this IPv6 lark, it's useless,I can't reach a thing"
And I figure uptake is fragile enough to not hamper it any more than
absolutely necessary.
