If I understand correctly, the user queues a lot of downloads, via HTTP or=
=20
=46TP, and then selects some that he wants prioritised, while for others he=
=20
can afford waiting a bit longer.

Given the amount of bandwidth available, he'd want to - say - allocate 80%=
=20
of it to the priority downloads.

That means:
1) the rules of what is priority and what isn't is dynamic. You can't have=
=20
a fixed set of iptables rules.
2) Consequence of #1 is that either the solution has to be implemented in=20
userspace completely, or we'd ned a Linux-only, setuid helper program, to=20
modify the iptables rules.
