I do! Specifically, I am planning to teach Flent to automatically switch
between iperf and netperf as the underlying test tool[0]. I believe that
there are a few netperf features missing from iperf that Flent currently
uses, so I'll get back to you with actual feature requests for those
once I've had a chance to take a look at this in more detail :)

impossible to package for FOSS-only distributions; leading to things
