While I agree that in a perfect world IPv6 removes all the obnoxious
complexity of NATs, I pretty strongly suspect that in the real world
most enterprises will, even in IPv6, deploy firewalls that are still
going to be a problem.

This isn't the venue to debate the general merits of IPv6 vs v4, much
less to bemoan the evil of NATs or the futility of perimeter security,
but while I am aesthetically attracted to v6 for it's NAT properties I
doubt that represents a significant real-world advantage.
