But how would thet differ from the IPv4 address space which has PTR
records for all their IP's? Just the shear number they would have to
deal with in the IPv6 space?

Oh, are you looking for auto-generated reverse for every address?
That's not going to happen for IPv6 (and it turns out that it wasn't
really a good idea for IPv4).  There's no reason to have reverse DNS
unless it has meaning, and "12-34-56-78.rev.domain.net" isn't really all
that useful.
