Given that ARIN at least is assigning end-user /48s out of 2620::/23 it would be useful to accept these announcements. If not end-user PI is dead in the water. Some providers might like that. End-users probably won't.
That range alone is 25 bits of routing, equivalent to routing all the way down to /25s in the IPv4 world. But I don't see how you could route some /48s without having software to route all /48s and that is hugemongous. And then times 4 for 128 bits. But, I'm not a routing engine guy, so I'm probably missing something ... Joe
