Well, as it turns out, I just found out and confirmed that since IOS XE
3.12S and later, Cisco introduced a new feature called Aggregate
EtherChannel Quality of Service:

With this, you can now apply a QoS policy on a LAG port and it will work
with (almost) all QoS features without you needing to apply the policies
on the LAG member links. I still need to spend some more time testing
the policing side of things, particularly how the data plane is
programmed re: carving of configured bandwidth across member ports in
the LAG.

I also see some good work being done on the ASR920 platform (also an IOS
XE-based system), as per below:
