It's not uncommon to have multiple layers of virtualization (e.g. lxc/docker running inside qemu/kvm). You'd need top-level hypervisor to passthrough (bridge?) nested VMs requests back to the router, but then you don't have same level of isolation.
Configurable prefix length when nesting (/64 at first level, /80 at 2nd, /96 at 3rd if needed) and automated NDP proxying could solve it, though.
