> I fully support the work on MPTCP proxies. I would not focus on the current use case (how gateway and two proxies) but more on the importance of :

+ 1.

Also, the solution should be future proof - if the server does support MPTCP, the proxy should simply relay the traffic, and not terminate the connection, allowing the client to directly connect to the server with other subflows.

Best.
