Interesting. Does this work for USB-C enabled laptops, say the latest MacBook Pros? Or does Apple only support Thunderbolt over USB-C for display connections?

Thunderbolt 3 carries DP1.2, Display Port alt mode for USB-C carries 1.4. As long as your needs can be handled by 1.2 you will be alright.

It works for Dell Laptops and their USB-C docking stations. But maybe it is not quite the same.
