If that's "all" you want, then we can do this:

- make kio_http set the option for minimum delay by default
- make it possible for kget to pass an option so that kio_http sets 
maximum throughput
- make kio_ftp always set maximum throughput

Then we will have done all that we can on our side. We will leave for the 
administrator to properly set up prioritising rules.

By the way, controlling what the Internet sends us is a lot more difficult 
than controlling what we send.
