There's only a few thousand IPv6 routes *today*...

As for the original question - I see people filter on RIR allocation 
boundaries (/32 for ISPs, /48 for PI) and other people don't filter at
all... so YMMV.

My personal recommendation would be:

 - register your prefixes in your local IRR-Database
 - filter your customers by IRR-DB - what's not in there doesn't go into
   the global BGP table.  No exceptions.
