Sounds like the results I'd expect.  When I move house later in the year, I may
segment my network physically, which would mean IPv4 subnets (which arrive via
tunnels) could be on separate wires, and I could delegate IPv4 prefixes to
those physical subnets.  Just a thought at this stage, still in the very early
planning stages. :)
