Yes; Yes; currently in the CW subbands. Where should I (we) transmit digital voice or digital multimedia when it becomes more of a part of the amateur radio's arsenal of modes to use. I'm not talking about today or tomorrow but 5 to 10 years down the road which is what the ARRL proposal is targeting. Of course with the CTT proposal, it's "jungle law", any mode any where, subject only to your class of license.
