How would people feel about this encoding for the flow label
(deemed to be immutable end to end)?

          0                   1
          0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
         |0|     Per-microflow unique value      |
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+


          0                   1
          0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
         |1|     Non-unique value                |
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

I'm not yet 100% convinced that the second case is sufficient for
diffserv, but at least it would be a more generic approach
than reserving half the space for diffserv.
