Well, it sure would be better for the application to be aware of ICMP problems
instead of silently hiding them.
Application will _have to_ deal with it, since there will have a bus post each
20ms (for pcma).
Can one bus post each 20ms lead to major performances problem ?
If so, a property "warn for icmp" could be added.
This could be a way to detect runaway calls from the caller and take signaling
decisions (Hang Up) based on media failures (icmp errors) (We use gstreamer for
telephony applications)
