AltQ, described in following, seems to be relevant. I'm looking into a
similar setup, though for different reasons.
PF: Packet Queueing and Prioritization
http://openbsd.org/faq/pf/queueing.html
ALTQ - allocation by percentage

Firewalling IPv6 with OpenBSD's pf (packet filter)
https://solarflux.org/pf/pf+IPv6.php
I'm still in the planning stages, though.
I'm currently using DNSmasq for DHCP, but would prefer to do something
else and use only IPv6 in-house. The version of DNSmasq in the openbsd
pkg archive has some problems, so I'm using a 'test' version of 2.41:
