I think I know one. Network management and administration. There is no
way in some of today's deeply NATed v4 networks to do adequate network
management -- monitoring is especially hard. Overlaying a v6 network
with a real address space over the NAT mess is easy, and results in
being able to actually get to all the nodes being managed.
