I can't believe I'm going to beat Owen to this point, but considering you 
a building a brand new infrastructure, I'd hope you'd support your service 
provider's stakeholders if they want to do IPv6.  To do so securely, 
you'll want your neutral layer 2 infrastrcuture to at least support 
RA-guard and DHCPv6 shield.  You might also want/need DHCPv6 PD snooping, 
MLD snooping.  We have found VERY disappointing support for these features 
in this type of gear.
