Brian, how important really is this loss estimation? I don't think that losses can really be estimated by watching the congestion window. The variations of that window will depend on the specific algorithm implemented by the nodes, and also on the actual load. If this is really important, we may need to dedicate a "loss bit" in addition to the "latency bit".
