IPs are a means to an end, in of themselves to consumers they have no value as such although metering at the LIR level may seem beneficial, the market verticals won't work as well. I believe someone else said this a lot better. Leave IPv4 as is, and concentrate on IPv6. Worst case, we leave IPv4 in a mess and force adoption of IPv6 sooner.
