I understand that you are looking at this as a means to reduce IPv4 
address space usage by sharing one address amongst multiple customers, 
and that's a novel approach. What I am more interested in is whether you 
plan on offering IPv6 to your customers as well? This could be the 
absolutely best-case scenario if you did, as an obvious solution to the 
share-ed NAT problem (uPnP, no port forwarding...) your customers would 
experience. It both creates a demand for IPv6 and offers a solution at 
the same time.
