Anyone have any interest in a forward-error-corrected streaming protocol

Good for when there's some packet loss.

I believe Cisco had/has a solution called VQE:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/video/ps7191/ps7127/product_data_sheet0900aecd806c0bfb.html.

It works by having a free software (LGPL or GPL) VQE client on the STB or
PC device that queues and requests missing packets.
