I actually do that. I route my IPTV boxes out via an alternate interface
due to some stupid contractual issues. So all I did was add routing
rules with ip -6 rule add from $addr table Magic and all the Magic table
has is a defaultroute out via the other interface. Same as IPv4. But
maybe your policy routing is something different?

For sure this would be a problem if the IPv6 addresses were changing all
the time but they haven't.
