We have a new proposal for using Connection Identifiers to signal host-to-network and network-to-host.  The CIDs can be QUIC CIDs or DTLS CIDs.

The CIDFI proposal has commonality with the I-D's in the CC line, most of which were presented at IETF117 in TSVAREA, QUIC, DISCUSS, and V6OPS.  CIDFI takes a different approach.  CIDFI does not use UDP trailers, allows the client and server to choose their Connection IDs however they wish, works on IPv4 and IPv6 (including through NATs and IPv6/IPv4 translators), and avoids the network operator's equipment connecting to the content server (which would identify the server to the network operator).

Abstract:

  This document describes how clients and servers can cooperate with
  network elements so their QUIC and DTLS streams can be augmented with
  information about network conditions and packet importance.
