Ultimately, relay resolvers won't work. Our goal is to transition from
v4 to v6. That means we have to at some point deploy native v6
servers.

It is true that relay resolvers are a useful transition mechanism --
we use them right now, in fact. I'm merely suggesting we should also
be moving towards the long term solution as well.
