inside a VRF, but the MPLS standards wg seems content with status quo.

The WG is pretty close to wrap this up (back to the 3rd WGLC very soon). 

But frankly admitting, dual-stacking facilitated more issues than I expected early on. 

Cheers,

Would you expound a bit on what you mean here? I don't quite follow but I
am very interested to understand the issue.

The fact that you need v4 space to build a MPLS backbone is a very good
reason to not waste a /10 on CGN crap. 

Ideally, we would have a solution where an entire MPLS infrastructure
could be built without v4 space, demoting v4 to a legacy application
inside a VRF, but the MPLS standards wg seems content with status quo.
