I'd be explicit about this split. You'll maybe have routing policies applied on the group level, perhaps also on the neighbor level - maybe not always. What happens when you put a policy designed for only IPv4 on IPv6 neighbors? What will happen on the other vendors you'll later pull into your network? If the network is automated the split doesn't matter that much anyway.
