Why is it best for the proxy to "know as much user intent as possible"? You can get that with WireGuard either way, but it's not at all clear to me that's true. We ran a rather huge deployment of WebSockets-encapsulated WireGuard, and I believe Tailscale has as well, and the fact that WireGuard was oblivious to it caused no problems I'm aware of.
