>From market prospective v6 SR is definitely lower priority. Comcast and few more are looking into native rather than v6 with MPLS encap.
Wrt v4 - 2 weeks ago at EANTC in Berlin we have tested 3 implementations of ISIS SR v4 MPLS with L3VPN and 6VPE over SR tunnels. Worked very well, very few issues.
So there's production quality code and interoperability - given the timeframe we have done a really good job in IETF :)
