We are in 2017 and IPv6 internet connections are spreading, for example RFC6333 defined DS-Lite lines. These lines have a carrier grade NAT on the IPv4 part was have a much slower ping than the native IPv6 connection. Because to the NAT on users router is added another NAT in carriers housing. Driving a Lede router here with configured MiniUPNPD, that wait for IGD1/2 requests to forward requested ports directly to the client. The ESO client only request that for IPv4 but not for IPv6, so 19 years after the invention of IPv6 the question is:

When will IPv6 and IGD1/2 be supported by the ESO client? Buying a PS4 or XBox today, the devices handle IPv6 and request their ports with RFC 6887.
