IPv6 next-hops can be distributed in OSPF and BGP in mikrotik as well, but
it's maybe not 100% ready for prime time.

Streaming services essentially all support IPv6 so that's a big win.  As is
gaming services.  Maybe general web browsing and other odd apps have some
teething to do still but I think we're pretty much ready for dual stack
right now.
