I don't understand why a problem with a tunnel 'leaves a bad taste with IPv6'. Since when a badly configured DNS zone left people with a 'bad taste for DNS', or a badly configured switch left people with 'a bad taste for spanning tree' or 'a bad taste for vlan trunking' ?
It seems to me that what are perceived as operational mistakes and/or plain lack of knowledge for some technologies is perceived as a fault of the protocol itself in the case of IPv6.
rogue dhcp servers are sufficiently common that tools had to be developed to address their existence and they're still a nuisance after all that.
People need to get their acts together.
indeed.
