If defining DHCPv4 option, the router should request DHCPv4 messages in the configured IPv6 tunnel. If defining DHCPv6 option, the router should have an global IPv4 address as well as IPv6 tunnel endpoint address at the same time, and should configure IPv6 tunnel and attach IPv4 global address to it. In the former case, the router has to decide whether it uses IPv4 global address or not by the reply from the DHCPv4 server that may not exist in the network. It may bring up implementation difficulty and also timing issue. So, as you suggest, it may be better to use DHCPv6.
