Thanks for the H/T, Dave!

I keep seeing bufferbloat in userspace proxies and tunnels, and think that
the world would benefit greatly from aqm library for applications to use in
order to keep latency under control.  Especially if work like encryption is
being done and the results thrown away due to massive tail drops and the
like (or "real-time" video streams that need to throw away a bunch of
received packets in order to catch back up the proper e2e latency.

(no I'm not volunteering at this time, nor am I obliquely asking anyone
else to...)
