I also had this setup, and i also thought of it as a "cool thing" :)
but then Patrick told me, that it's not so clever: the incoming traffic 
must pass 2 qdiscs (interface-qdisc and imq-qdisc) and this is bad/not 
good because
1) cpu - overhead (but this could be negleted) AND
2) these 2 qdiscs COULD drop packets and no one would know of the other 
having dropped s.th. -> retransmit
ok. case 2 is not so realistic, as the qdisc on the interface normaly
is the qfifo but nevertheless point 1) and the possibility of 2) made me 
think that queing double unnecessary.
