This mode of operation was suggested last week during the SD-NAT presentation. There seemed to be consensus among operators that it was not practically feasible.

2) a node inside the network will treat translated packets different from 
encapsulated ones.
    e.g. for the purposes of counting or for applying features. for an 
encapsulated packet both the complete
    IPv4 datagram and the IPv6 header is available, and different features can 
be applied to both.

In practice, the contents of encapsulated packets are rarely inspected by firewalls and other such devices.


IMHO at this point we should let the market decide. Publish both as experimental. Let's work on something else now.
