There are three separate problems: 1. a ping that doesn't use ICMP there are dozens of these 2. needing a reflector ping gets around this only because the reflector is widely deployed (and integrated into most OSes) 3. using the same port as the traffic you care about transport protocol is only one problem (ICMP being a "transport protocol" by virtue of using the IP protocol number field) the other is differential prioritization based on port number there's no easy solution to that; every service would need an integrated ping reflector I suspect #3 is the ultimate killer of this idea.
