> The distinction between RTCP SR and RR isn’t useful here. What you want to say is that an SSRC needs to use the same marking for the RTCP packets it sends as it uses for the RTP packets it sends. If it doesn’t send any RTP packets, it marks its RTCP packets with the marking it would use if it did send RTP.

That last bit concerns me a bit. Are we really asking an implementation to figure out how it would have done something it isn't going to do?
