A similar result could be achieved if resolvers, when they have to
get a name for an IPv6 address having a privacy ID, instead of
having no chance to get any name, would replace this ID by an agreed
standard value for which there is a PTR RR.

It seems a good idea.

RFC 1101 is probably the right basis for such a feature (which does
not exist today). So, the roadmap is:

* write a RFC 1101bis, mostly to introduce IPv6 support
* convince the resolver's authors to use it (it requires code on their
  side)
