Tom,

I have to preface by saying I have only a faint memory of the tc stuff
in shorewall since it's useless to me on Mandriva since they decided to
ship 2007.0 without the pp2p module.  :-(

But I wonder if this sort of thing, putting acks in the highest priority
band for example is something shorewall can/should do for the user and
should be the default behaviour in absence of some kind of positive
action on the user to make it not so?  I'd think it's the behaviour that
most (qos ignorant at least) users would want.
