Stephane,

Thanks for the response and the proposed updates. Some follow-up on a few 
points:

OK. I think a general note in the Introduction saying that would be very useful.

No, but there are applications that run on multiple ports and it's a bit clumsy
to require a separate classifier for each port.

Diffserv DSCP values are widely used. I suggested diffserv-intercon because it 
proposes
a specific subset useful at network boundaries, but there is also RFC 5127 and 
related
work for WebRTC (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-rtcweb-qos).

OK, but you still need a rich set of QoS parameters at that level, and shouldn't
it be the same set?

No, but the IETF strongly recommends against NAT66, while having specs for 
NAT44, NAT64 and NPTv6.
Hiding these distinctions under the buzzword "NAT" is misleading.

But it's not a NAT address, it's an NPTv6 prefix. A different animal.
