IPv6 makes it easier and harder. I'm not sure what happens if the ipv6 address isn't reachable due to firewall ingress rules, but I'm pretty sure you can't poke a hole in the NAT that doesn't exist. I would like to think that most home users prevent ipv6 ingress, but I have no way to test that.
It'll be interesting to look at the solution and see how they handled that.
