One could perhaps go to the effort to allocate a new set of codepoints in Pool 3, say 0bx11101, for "DSCP Loss/Latency Tradeoff" -- I'd want to get the opinion of someone with some DSCP expertise to say how difficult this would be.

+1 - this is exactly Jianjie and I are asking about...  how difficult it would be, and if folks would consider this reasonable
