What multi-homing issues?  We've been multihomed on the IPv6 side for... ages.

And yes, there's some RA/DHCP issues - but the *practical* upshot is that it's
hard to DHCP a v6-only host and get stuff like DNS and NTP servers to them.  So
since our users are all dual-stack, we just DCHPv4 the DNS and such to them,
and it's not a major issue.  If they're on our wireless, they get a globally
routable IPv6 address and a NAT-ed IPv4, and DNS and such are available over
the IPv4, and mostly everything Just Works (modulo the NAT dain bramage, of
course). When we get a good DHCPv6, we'll roll it out.
