Oh thanks for reminding me Buchan, there is another thing that would be nice to be 
configurable per source:
Bandwidth limit.  So you can limit how much bandwidth it taken by urpmi downloading 
things (hdlists, packages, etc)
rsync and wget both support options for this, and I imagine curl does too, so we could 
offer a bwlimit for just about any kind of source.

curl does have --limit-rate, the problem is that bandwidth limit in rsync needs the server to have an rsync version that has --bwlimit support, and i am not sure all mirror do (sunet did not last time i checked), and it will faili miserably if the server does not support it.
