It's a shame. Erlang supports it nicely, too. But like koenigdavidmj, I understand lots of cheap home routers don't like it. If you want a protocol that consumers can use without worry, sadly it seems to me that you better base it on TCP or UDP under the covers. Which multipath TCP does, according to https://lwn.net/Articles/544399/

FOr that reason, WebRTC Data channels use SCTP but encapsulated in UDP. It is implemented in user space inside the browser (probably not what you'd want but at least encourages deployment).
