So ?

If your box is routing in between VLANs, you are using it wrong way, IMO.

On the other hand, I could very well put clients in some building into
an set where I have a switch with FE connection to router, and lots of
10BaseT ports to clients. Hard-limiting bandwith to said 10 Mbit.

I use VLAN truncked systems mainly for network administration, for
DHCP servers.
