At least if you have a look in the MIPv6 draft, chapter 2, support
for coexistence with ingress filtering is pointed out as one benefit
of MIPv6 compared to MIPv4, so there seems to be no reason for
stopping ingress filtering in IPv6.
Encapsulation could work around this problem, but you have to
investigate the influence of this encapsulation to authentication,
firewalls, and overhead added to narrow band links.
