I can't imagine an LB vendor who would sell a v6 to v4 vip solution who
wouldn't provide a way to inject the v6 addr in to the request as an
additional header? I suggest a naming-and-shaming is in order

Sure, but, if you're not prepared to parse, log, and deal with that header,
then, you lose, right?

Note I said "IF your servers behind the LB aren't prepared for it..."
