I've been wondering about this as well, it would be a huge step forward to
have this sort of functionality - WebRTC does support Opus as one of its
codecs, however it appears you need quite a few things to be fully
compliant:
As of March 2012 the IETF WebRTC Codec and Media Processing Requirements
> draft[9] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebRTC#cite_note-9> requires
> implementations to provide PCMA
> <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCMA>/PCMU<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCMU>
> (RFC 3551 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3551>), Telephone Event as
> DTMF<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTMF>
> (RFC 4733 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4733>), and
> Opus<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opus_(codec)>
> (RFC 6716 <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6716>), along with a number of video

Not sure if Liquidsoap could provide just a subset of the full protocol due
to its uni-directional nature (don't need bi-drectional communication).
