I removed the QoS structures from my latest version until something can be 
defined that is usable, and it's clear how the QoS requirements map to the 
underlying routes.  (My personal experience with QoS parameters in an API is 
that it never moves beyond the stage of being a place-holder.)  Any patch that 
defines and implements QoS to routing would be greatly appreciated.  And 
reference to an application that makes use of it would be helpful.
