Is there a summary of these available?

Yes, this is the "hard part". It would help if we had some active 
implementations. I believe the current draft specifies a separate RTCP 
connection for the headers and a way to pass them through SDP (this 
method supports caching). The draft doesn't speak directly to the 
headers being included in the rtp stream, but this should probably be 
included as well.
