We've already extended rtpproxy for transcoding and encryption, we're thinking 
to continue with that approach for
header compression.

Yes we're wondering also.  The main customer concern seems to be physically 
slow networks rather than
oversubscription.  I.e. geographical regions and/or equipment where voice 
channels are well under 50 kbps.  But you
make a good point, and we're trying to evaluate this carefully.

It does seem valuable if we can get down (and stay down) to a few bytes for all 
headers instead of 40.  Also it seems
a lot of work has gone in the area over the last few years.  For example, 
initial RFCs were sensitive to packet loss,
later revisions have improved this.
