IOS 7 supposedly enables multi-path TCP

As best I can tell, this allows a TCP connection to hop from Wifi to 4G etc.

Presumably of at least indirect interest for the TAG's discussions of HTTP 
2.0, SPDY and maybe even (from a performance point of view) split browsers, 
though that last one seems a stretch.
