I hope SCTP[1] starts to take off soon as a transport for protocols like this, so they don't have to keep working around the limitations of TCP. [1] http://en.

Date of the first RFC is from 2000. I wouldn't hold my breath. Besides, SPDY enablement simply relies on browser / middleware updates changes which can iterate quickly compared to networking gear that needs to support the protocol shift. This was a large factor in building SPDY on top of an existing stack.
