That was my initial reaction too :-) I think the actual idea is to work around brokenness on third party networks, e.g. the ISP has working v6, the web site has working v6, but there's bad connectivity between them. (It doesn't help that there are some stupid peering wars going on between tier 1 v6 providers, as mentioned in the v6 section of [1].) The right fix, I think, is to get better peering or to filter broken routes. It would seem to me to be better to implement the fix in the network layer not the DNS layer, since it's a network problem not a DNS problem.
