If we can support VP8/9 as well as H.264/5 SVC
that would be a start. It seems doable to me.

This is undesirable both because the middle-box needs to have access to the keys as well as the because of the added overhead of the decrypt/encrypt cycle. This draft proposes an RTP header extension that will allow us to use the VP8 temporal layer information included in the header extension and therefore do forwarding without SRTP decryption. Comments welcome.
