Actually, we've been faced with proposals to build services based on traffic classification, like e.g. "access our own webmail and all social networking sites, but not skype and video" or the capability to do exact metering based on net traffic time or volume, as well as being able to redirect the customer to various captive portals using HTTP redirect directly from the DPI box, and such.
