I'm not following how what Simon said would only apply to SIP.

The patch I'm writing will make ACLs generally IPv6-capable. The other 
channel drivers that use ACLs will not be able to use IPv6 ACLs at the 
moment since they just don't support IPv6 addresses in any capacity yet. 
Once the channel drivers have been outfitted to use IPv6 addresses, then 
they'll also, by extension, be able to use IPv6 ACLs.
