I agree with Bill.  You can poopoo NAT all you want, but it's a fact
of most networks and will continue to remain so until you can make a
compelling case to move away from it.

Does that mean all IPv6 firewalls should support NAT?

Remember, we're aiming for a base set of requirements applying to all
IPv6 firewalls.

Your document specifies "Enterprise" firewalls. Frankly I think that's
wise. Consumer and enterprise users have very different needs and very
different cost points.
