I have pitched the idea in the IETF to have TCP stacks themselves report 
IP performance indicators (aggregate) and that a standard for this to be 
standardised. No takers so far.

I hate test traffic, I want to know how the real traffic is doing instead. 
In my opinion, people are way too happy to inject a lot of "useless" test 
traffic.
