We've entered the wonderful world of the traffic limiters. Specifically,
we put FACEBOOK subnets through a comparatively skinny pipe. This is
done to make it JUST a bit too painful to look at kitten photos, but
perfectly suitable to look at CompetitorCo's facebook page for
legitimate business purposes. We're still collecting empirical data on
how much it disuades personal use, but it doesn't seem to create tension
the way that explicit blocking would.
The issue:
in <=2.2 if an in-use limiter is renamed, the system will yell at you.
IMO, that's good.
in 2.3, if an in-use limiter is renamed, the system will not yell at
you. IMO that's bad.
Should this fact be considered a regression, or is there a reason for
removing this notice/check?
IMO, it would be preferable to abstract the limiter names the way
aliases have been abstracted (so they can be changed without the risk of
breaking things) but I understand that limiters may not be used as
frequently as aliases.
