My ISP currently hands out a /60 via 6rd (space gets a little tight with the embedded IPv4 address). The BBF is settling on /56 as its recommended prefix size for residential customers. I've seen /64's out there as well (and stomped on them as quickly as possible, but can only do so much).

I have to agree that we must expect that variable prefix sizes to sites will be a reality.

(A reason for that are the changed RIR policies that allow the ISPs freely to 
decide if they want to give a /48, a /56 or even a /61 to its customers.)

Removing the /48 assumption will have major impact e.g. on Margarets draft.
