yes, this sounds like a good idea.

as for debian: after a bit of research, i find that there has endless
discussion about this in bugreport #560238 for the offending package "netbase",
which eventually led to the removal of this default option in the package (but
it seems that systems that had installed the offending package are not
"cleaned" again).
from the changelog:

  * Stop setting net.ipv6.bindv6only=1 by default. (Closes: #560238)

anyhow, i still think that it would be a good idea to use setsockopt to force
the socket to be both ipv4&ipv6 (and eventually also add a property, so people
can choose either ipv4, ipv6 or both (default))
