Bang on. And find tools that allow you to deal with v4 and v6
address space at the same time: use object groups in firewall
rules/ACLs, adding AAAA to DNS, etc... This goes a long way to
not minimize the number of places where one has to do double
the work.
By the way, RFC7381 is out, and it's worth a read.
