So if the RTP extension is there to help the receiver deal with the anonymous SSRC until an SDP Answer or RTP SDES packet shows up to clarify things, I can live with it.  But if supporting the RTP extension is necessary to process every RTP packet I would not be favorably inclined toward this approach. 

Agree: if we define an RTP header extension for this, it should only be used to speed-up acquisition of the relevant information that's sent in an RTCP SDES item (much like we did with RFC 6051).
