Yes, this is useful, but some minor changes are needed, I think. First, rename
it to "bytelimit" or somewhat. Second, allow this to use tablearg and possibly
ability to reference a counter to corresponding dynamic rule, to allow this to
act for a specific IP or connection without need to write many rules. Third,
add packet counter as well. That's all possible with one opcode, though...
