A number of networks on which I have worked have used DSCP-based tunnel
selection to choose between RSVP-TE LSPs. This essentially is different
routing based on DSCP, which seems to be something that you're trying to
cover -- is that correct?

If so, given that these are running in real networks, I find it hard to
conclude that any IETF standard should declare them as failed.
