Also possibly that the whole SDN movement means hardware will get

this can be handled by any kernel and not just the kernel that the vendor

I don't how SDN would help for queuing.
I never said it would. I said that the SDN movement might give
standardized APIs into what the forwarding hardware does, including
packet treatment such as queuing behaviour. It might also mean that if
someone implemented a certain queuing behaviour and this ended up defined
by the API description, more vendors might implement the same thing.
