I've been attended presentations in which people have argued that this geo-location thing (i.e., multiple-layers of NATs breaking it) is yet another motivation for v6. -- I don't buy it (nor do I buy much of the "NAT is evil" and similar stuff). But this thing is being used, and if multiple layers of NAT will break it (or, "will prevent it to work the way it used to", if you prefer), it should be noted. The fact that geo-location was not considered in the IP design, is irrelevant. As noted, IP wasn't meant for production, either.
