	Since besteffort is the default already, I believe there is no need to link two otherwise orthogonal toggles. diffservN (we could add diffserv1 as alias to besteffort?) The man page can then easily explain the options independently and people can predict their interaction, something along the line of:
“The diffserv mode defines how cake reacts to DSCP markings in queued packets, with besteffort treating all markings the same and hence effectively ignores them. Squash defines how cake treats the DSCP bits of packets it passes on the the next layer, by default the markings are conserved, the squash keyword instructs cake to re-mapp all DSCPs to 0”

	Potentially caused by -ENOADEQUATETESTHARDWARE and hence not tested ;) ?

	Good idea, this is only really needed to change away from a limited mode, so users can be expected to request bandwidth explicitly…
