I wish there was something like that available for PPP over ATM links.  My 
ADSL connection varies between 160Kbps and 224Kbps depending on how many ATM 
cells are wasted by mostly null cells.  I'm stuck with a rate of 160Kbps 
since that's the lowest stable rate I could find that works under the worst 
case scenario of many, small Ethernet packets.  Sadly I miss out when my 
connection is not in that worst state.
