it might be suboptimal, but you could create a queue for each IP,
and then a literal pass rule for every traffic from that IP you want
to enqueue, such as:
pass on $ext_if from 172.16.10.3 to any queue( q_170.16.10.3 )
and then have one for each.
i have tried this and quickly encountered the MAXQUEUES setup
in /usr/src/sys/altq/altq_{queue type}.h
i remember someone mentioning having set that to > 256 for cbq --
hfsc is defaulted to 64... but that might not be a problem
if you aren't using the full /16 of the /16 you mention.
if there is a snazzier way to to it than literal queueing into
queues representitive of each IP, that would be swell to know.
