I agree that DNS SRV is a matter outside the scope of  websockets,
which (for better or for worse) use a connection that is established
via a HTTP request.   Thus I do not think that the establishment of a
HTTP connection for websockets should differ in any way from the name
resolution handling of other HTTP connections made by a user-agent.
If the advocates of DNS SRV wish for websocket to use it, then they
need to convince HTTPbis (I think that is the right WG?) to adopt it
for all of HTTP and then websockets will inherit that feature.

If in future, there is a proposal to directly establish websocket
connections without a HTTP upgrade (as David Endicott has alluded to),
then I think DNS SRV should definitely be supported.
