With a twist it could if I understand the problem correctly.  Along side 
the SRV records you would have to add 'reverse hop' records and follow 
the chain till the proxy discovers its-self; discover the route path in 
order from destination to sender.  However I am guessing this would be 
error prone and of course required *everyone* in eduroam adding suitable 
'reverse hop' records to their realm; easily monitorable mind you.
