Changing route based on packet loss

Hello fellow bird users,

I was wondering if anyone has solved this with bird or bird plus
something:

Assuming you have multiple, somewhat lossy links. Packet loss might be
in the range of 0-30% on each link. I would like bird to select the
current best path, based on the amount of packet loss on each link.

I've the seen the various rtt* options in babel, but the notion there
seems to be more time(out) specific, rather than loss specific.

Any pointers in the right direction are appreciated.

Best regards,

Nico
