I agree that, if a NAT66 is combined with a FW, stateful NAT66 seems more 
logical than stateless.

As is, this statement is much too general to be defendable:
IPv6 has already gone somewhere, and will continue, at least for many 
residential customers (Free in France, SoftBank in japan, Comcast trials in the 
US...)

Apparently, you know customers that want NAT66 (in addition to their stateful 
FWs) because they want IPv6 asap, and find they need IPv6 address translation 
for this.
Then, describing in detail at least one of their configurations, and for which 
use they need IPv6 asap, would be a very useful contribution.
(So far, we have statements that such customers exist, but technical 
descriptions of what they want to do are IMHO badly missing.)
