This would be the responsibility of the CC.

Each CC has its own ways to be controlled. vegas & cubic have different
knobs.

TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT controls the number of unsent bytes. This is generic.

You do not want to add a 'knob' that would lock all CC to a given
behavior : It is already there with pacing.

If you know the rtt, then with pacing you also can limit XXX bytes on
the wire.
