Yes, but there's little stopping many of these ideas from becoming the basis for an IETF-developed transport protocol that actually meets the needs we have here.

[MB] Except, maybe, IPR: 
 https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/search/?option=document_search&id=draft-thornburgh-adobe-rtmfp
[/MB]

Conveniently, RTMFP was preceded by an open-source project which had no patents filed. so to the extent the "ideas" are present there (and many of them are), that's easily worked around, if one needed a starting place.

But my point wasn't to start discussing the merits of the specific approach described in that particular RFC... rather to note that the cobbled-together collection of choices that have been made, specifically gluing SCTP on to the side of RTCWEB as a way of transporting data, is highly suboptimal and that other solutions do exist.

In fact, simply allowing the data we need to be sent unsolicited as another SRTP stream would be an improvement over doing 2 round trips of SCTP setup for the problem space we are discussing in this thread.
