I'll leave the specific issue (whether MIPv6 should be a MUST) to
those who have been tracking this more closely than I have, but
addressing the more general question that's lurking here: yes, this
sort of thing will happen, and it will be bad, and we will have to
deploy updates, and we will move on.  We've done it before (eg: IPv4
CIDR, or, if you want to go further back, IPv4 subnets and before that
IPv4 address classes other than class A).  It's annoying, but the
alternative is to wait for all the ducks to be in a row, and those
quackers just won't stand still.
