  ftp-proxy is solution to help IPv4 NAT. Why do we need it when every
device could have routable IPv6? Of course, _every_ device should be
protected by border firewall (stateful and IPv6-enabled), but FTP
server should have special rules for it to allow traffic pass, not
some "proxy".

 And, yes, NAT64 will be useful for sure, but it is another story,
not IPv6<->IPv6 translation.
