I know, I should not tell this publicly but... I route /96 subnets and assign single /128 addressed to virtual hosts inside my vpn. Sure than there is no auto configuration possible anymore (wich is THE killer feature in v6) bit I only have to pay for a single /64 block and all host can get a public v6 if needed.

I'll be honest, less ugly than NAT which is really where I draw the line (I hate NAT), especially if they're charging you per /64, that's borderline diabolical from a hosting provider. If I was getting charged per /64 I'd probably route /96s too. Lack of SLAAC is unfortunate though.
