The long-lived connection I'd be most interested in would be a download or a video stream.   TBH, I don't know the state of the art on streaming and multiply homed devices, though.   I know that there are techniques that spread streams across flows, but I don't know if they spread flows across links without operator intervention on a dual-homed home network.
