I am familiar with the dual stack problem generally, where servers have both IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses. I was not involved in any conversations regarding the dual stack problem for Pluggable Transports specifically. If you could point me to any documentation on this issue, that would be helpful. Alternatively, if you could explain what the issue is and what possible solutions you'd like to see in a future Pluggable Transports specification, that is something we could make happen in future specifications revisions.
None of the things I've mentioned are new concerns, and I brought all of them up (and more) a long time ago back when I was giving thought to the PT spec.
I've basically given up at this point, and to be honest I gave up shortly after I initially started making noises about improving the spec because it was clear that while I was trying to improve the existing interface while preserving the overall architecture, everyone else was far more interested in "lets make everything into a bunch of library code".
