Speaking for myself, I'm one of the "if I want to allow direct outside
connection to my interior machines I should be able to" crowd. And also
one of the "if I and someone else want to connect our hosts directly we
should be able to" crowd.

That is, I don't want the architecture of the Internet to be crippled by
NAT everywhere. If you want to NAT *your* network, go for it. As a local
stalwart is wont to say, "I encourage my competitors to do that" ;-)
