That is essentially what most SD-WAN devices do- treat the Internet as an 'underlay' network- most of them are using proprietary code to create their own network infrastructure that isn't standards based.

It generally is standards based. Their customers demand it to be so. IPSec tunnel overlays, usually if not always full mesh. The non-standard part is tiny insignificant tweaks to IPSec that render it unacceptable to standards speaking endpoints, thus you can't coordinate with your open source IPSec device. Stupid myopia, because these systems depend on proprietary orchestration anyway.

+1 for velocloud. SDWAN mesh between all your devices, and they provide a cloud gateway that allows you to connect to any compatible ipsec device, without having to backhaul all the data to one specific endpoint.
