      I don't want a wizard or an interface or eight different nested +/- exploding menus.

      I don't want a default queue or a special queue or any queue at all.

      I don't want to choose an algorithm, because I don't want an algorithm.

      All I want is the same thing 9 out of 10 people here struggling with QOS want:

      –->  If voip is in use, give it X bandwidth, and let the rest of the traffic suffer

      That's it.  That's all I want.  No wizard needed.  No queues.  I don't care about the HFSCQ or the PRIOXYZ or the qACK or any of it.

      Here, I'll draw it for you, in ascii:

      If VOIP is in use, dedicate _____ mb/s to it, penalizing all other traffic

      That's it.  That's all I want.  That's all 9 out of 10 people here want.

      And you know it.

        You actually do want all those things, you just want an add-on module that creates them all for you for that one simple use scenareo you described.  Alas…  I'm no dev.
