Handled in the 6to4 and Teredo specs. The router returns a reverse NAT for the 
browser to respond to which it rewrites and then forwards.

  I don't think that will work.

1. Browser is instructed to go www.example.com 2. DNS returns only an IPv6 
address record (AAAA) for that site 3. Browser computer has only IPv4 
connectivity 4. Now what?

  The browser cannot plug an IPv6 address into the IPv4 stack.
