Counting IPv6 over DNS

Counting IPv6 over DNS: At the recent ARIN XXX meeting in October 2012 I listened to a debate on a policy proposal concerning the reservation of a pool of IPv4 addresses to address critical infrastructure. This term is intended to cover a variety of applications, including use by public Internet Exchanges and authoritative nameservers for various top level domains. As far as I can tell, the assumptions behind this policy proposal includes the assumption that a top level authoritative nameserver will need to use IPv4 for the foreseeable future, so that an explicit reserved pool of these IPv4 addresses needs to be maintained for use by the authoritative nameservers for these domain names. But it this really the case? If you set up an authoritative DNS nameserver for a domain name where all the nameservers were only reachable using IPv6, then what is the visibility of this nameserver? What proportion of the Internet's user base could still access the name if access to the authoritative nameservers was restricted to only IPv6?
