Comment (by josklever):

 IPv6 should be implemented on every host. By giving the website owner the
 signal that IPv6 is not yet supported, should direct them to their
 webhost, asking for IPv6 on the server.
 As IPv4 has run out of new addresses, there will be more and more people
 over the world that can only access websites via IPv6, so it's not only
 just bringing the server technology up-to-date, but maybe even some
 accessibility improvement.
 So this would not be a critical issue, but at least an improvement.
