I think modulating the interval is what Dave Beazley's own patch
proposal does. It has a full-blown priority system. It is more
complicated than either of the two approaches I am more proposing,
though.
(also, per Dave's own admission, his patch is a proof-of-concept rather
than a finished piece of work)
