Rather than the dynamic mappings Dan suggested, I
could imagine a corporate, WAN type IPsec VPN scenario, were the
global DNS entry destinations are only accessible across the
IPsec tunnels, to devices residing behind the IPsec VPN gateways.
Placing unique-local addresses in the global DNS infrastructure
would save having to setup split / duplicate DNS in this
scenario, minimising costs.
