Not sure how that would work. You would have to make some transaction on the Ethereum network for other peers to discover you, correct? That kind of makes the barrier to entry a lot harder.
On desktop, it's possible to use mDNS et al, we need something similar for browsers.
Please tell me more how I could use Ethereum for discovery of other peers though, sounds interesting.
