I should have made myself more clear -- the policy amendment would make
clear that multihoming requires only one facilities-based connection and
that the other connections could be fulfilled via tunnels.  This may be
heresy for some.

I'll make the bold assumption that wasn't the spirit of the policy when 
it was written.  Maybe the policy needs to be amended to clarify that.

I think this is a bad idea and I suspect would slow IPv6 deployment. 
Potential latency issues aside, is there a technical (not political) 
reason for doing so?
