Well, IPv6 users who want to access the IPv4 only DNS server will need
some form of solution. There is indeed no particular problem in
deploying a relay-resolver -- we are doing that all the time. The only
question is, how do IPv6 only resolvers find the nearest or most
adequate dual-mode relay? DNS server discovery may or may not be the
answer; are we ready to accept that "default server" and "IPv4 relay"
are the same function?
