I believe a single bit for loss would be extremely low fidelity, because losses are commonly correlated, so it may actually be more misinformation than information.

I've seen one case when this would have been nice to have, but I think there are other ways to monitor loss that are more useful(ie: I'm seeing a lot of loss at this peering point, etc).

Brian, I believe you mentioned writing up a proposal for an extended 'debug' header that would not be default enabled, but be available for detailed network debugging.  If we were to adopt that, I think loss would be helpful there.
