I hope Linux IPv6 picks this up fairly soon.
To summarize, at whatever time Linux is ready to declare its IPv6 support "stable" (as opposed to "experimental"), it would be of great benefit to applications developers if they could rely on being able to use the IPv6 basic socket API in order to access IPv4. This could be accomplished by either combining IPv6 and IPv4 under the same option, or separating the IPv6 API from the option for the IPv6 protocol.
