My thoughts are that a AAA system would only authorize for
a certain QoS Class, not necessarily authorize specific
QoS parameters.

I agree. I don't think that COPS is the proper mechanism,
though some people use it.  Most of the discussions I have
heard, as of late, seem to be about migrating to AAA mechanisms
for QoS authorization.
