By the way it doesn't really change meaning. Just enhances it indeed. 
Because they are not changing the meaning of existing DSCP codes, just 
adding new ones.

No I have not. In fact I'm just discovering the subject after some 
people told me "we are contractually required to apply this guideline, 
please make sure Linux kernel supports it".

I'll give 'fwmark' and/or skb->priority a try. Is there any 
Documentation on that somewhere ?
