WebEx, WebRTC they use it.
QoS works. To answer the question in the title of Michael’s paper.

It the app runs in the cloud and the cloud has direct peering links to your
branch office or SP
most likely DSCP works.

And going back to Roland’s proposal, it seems the most natural approach
instead of hacking the semantics.
