In previous life working with L3 MPLS VPN with deliveries far
exceeding on-net size we bought access from partners and had QoS
contracts in place, which were tested and enforced and they worked
after some ironing during field trials.
Usually contract was bidirectional, with partner also using our
network for extending reach of their network, so both had incentive to
offer working QoS with network-edge translation of marking.

I think when the partner participates in a private service, end-to-end,
there's a higher chance things will work (which I believe is one of the
components for Inter-AS l3vpn's and QoS).

However, when part of the partner's offering is off-net (especially
where off-net = public Internet), much less likely.
