Needs rebasing. I am not sure what the changes should look like, @bifurcation , can you do the rebasing?


The proposed mechanism differs from the Secure Real-Time Protocol (SRTP) in that
it is independent of RTP (thus compatible with non-RTP media transport) and can
be applied to whole media frames in order to be more bandwidth efficient.

This one is 80 char wrapped, not the other section.
We should probably try to be consistent.

Updated the sections affected by this PR. I can do a global 80-char-wrap PR once the current queue drains.

# Introduction
Modern multi-party video call systems use Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) servers to efficiently route RTP streams to call endpoints based on factors such as available bandwidth, desired video size, codec support, and other factors. In order for the SFU to work properly though, it needs to be able to access RTP metadata and RTCP feedback messages, which is not possible if all RTP/RTCP traffic is end-to-end encrypted.

Do we need to spell out SFU since we already clarified what this is in the abstract?

Seems like it doesn't hurt, and might improve clarity if someone skips the abstract.
