Very perceptive.  Well, Mozilla /does/ this. So this is a bug/'feature' of 
mozilla.  So perhaps you could put this on Mozilla's buglist?

I my case, I noticed that mozilla makes the AAAA query first then the A 
query. It gets answers to both though (the ISP's DNS has both records) and 
quickly proceeds to use the v6 address.
