I've observed that, even if there is traffic every few seconds,
the NAT box I have will change the UDP source port occasionally
for UDP traffic.
=> argh! This mandates a IPv6 over TCP/IPv4 too because the NAT cannot
do this for a TCP connection...
PS. The above is based on operational experience for IPv4 over UDP/IPv4
to enable IPsec tunnels on top of that.
=> and can IPsec work with such a (broken) NAT?
