In our brave new fq_codel'd world we tend to drop more packets under congestion. Using ECN on babel packets has resulted in a much stabler mesh network for me for 5 years, even with no defined response.
Inventing a good response to CE markings would be good also, but this is a start towards separating packet loss as a connectivity measure vs a congestion measure.
