In the past we've used "www6" for v6 only, "www4" for v4 only, and "www" has both v6 and v4.
Which works fine for you and me, but not for my mother.
Which means it is an excellent suggestion for the transition phase into an IPv6 Internet. Since that happens to be where we are right now, IPv6 transition, this is an excellent all-round idea for all services and servers. We should adopt this as a best-practice. In a few years, when IPv6 is everywhere and your mother comes online with IPv6, then we will be out of the transition period and a new set of best practices comes into play. --Michael Dillon
