Now I'm wondering if you could embed an out of band protocol in all your TCP traffic on the internet at large by misusing those mostly ignored, but accessible, bits.
At worst just to eek out ~16 more bits per packet.

I would be very surprised if they made it to the other side of the world unmangled when the URG flag is unset. I would be even more surprised if some Cisco hardware wasn't already reusing those bits for its own purposes.
