To be a little more general: we should decide whether we want to allow QUIC flows to be easily multiplexed along with some other UDP-based protocols on a single port. 

Multiplexing with the full WebRTC stack is one example of this, but is not the only use case. For example, if we want to enable peer-to-peer QUIC in future, then we should consider defining the packet formats to be easily distinguishable from STUN and/or TURN to help NAT traversal.
