I'm a little conflicted on this. On the one hand, it's nice to give
administrators more flexibility. On the other hand, I want Babel to be as
automated as possible: that's why Babel supported ETX from the outset, and
that's why we developed RTT: so that Babel could adapt to a variety of
real-world networks with minimal human intervention.
Toke, what problem are you aiming to solve, and are we able to develop an
algorithm that solves this problem without configuring policies manually?
