I don't get it.

If you are talking about SBCs that terminate/relay media, then the leg 
doing trickle-ICE is separate from the leg doing vanilla-ICE. So what is 
the issue?

And if you have a signaling-only SBC, and one leg supports trickle-ICE 
while the other side supports only vanilla-ICE, then just use 
vanilla-ICE e2e. You won't gain anything by an intermediary trying to 
map trickle-ICE to vanilla-ICE.

Yes, but once you have done it then it is there to use for all sorts of 
things. The alternative seems to be to instead introduce a lot of new 
complexity that is *only* applicable to trickle-ICE.
