They shouldn't.  We need solutions for both, but as a (largely) 
green-field rtcweb may be able to implement things sooner (or with more 
ubiquity) than general RTP applications.

I would not assume that, but it may be easier to deploy in those 
environments per above, or they may add constraints that help solutions 
for those areas.

yes - but gaining benefits for existing apps without any change by them 
is unlikely except via network changes.  With changes, existing apps may 
be able to more fully take part.
