If you are serious about this, also it would be a good idea to make SO_OOBINLINE default option. Consider this. At least this will allow to trap applications which will corrupt data stream earlier.
Well enabling SO_OOBINLINE would contradict POSIX. Much as I'd like to have it on by default, I don't think it's really worth it. In any case such applications will break right now because URG notifications can be merged due to out-of-order delivery, which would cause OOB data to go in-band.
