Anecdotical data that I gathered suggests that:
- I am not alone
- IPv6 senders are not penalized by default but they can easily be, much
  more easily than IPv4 senders
- as usual, there is no way to request a reputation revision[1]
- as usual, IP reputations problems can be worked around by implementing
  SPF (?) or DKIM

While I sympathize with the movement that wishes to move reputation from
IPs to domains, I expect that the result of this policy will almost
always be that IPv6-enabled customers will request to disable IPv6 for
mail.


[1] something that even Yahoo manages to do, but that I suspect that
Google is unwilling to do since it cannot be performed automatically 
with a MapReduce...
