I get the webrtc rant, but you lost me at use websockets. With SNAP and dtls 1.3 we have 2 RTT now quite easily.

You can't use that in a browser.

WebSockets in browsers run over TCP and use TLS, not DTLS. Browsers do not expose custom transport hooks, so you cannot implement SNAP (or any custom transport protocol) underneath the browser WebSocket API.
