[Diffserv] DHCP user class

Diffservers might want to look at
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-userclass-08.txt

It's already passed last call and is on the IESG's plate. But it
says

   It is often desirable to provide different levels of service
   to different users of an IP network.
   In order for an IP network to implement this service
   differentiation, it needs a way to classify users. A simple
   solution to this is to use source IP addresses for classification.
   Under this scheme, network administrators first configure network
   devices such as routers to recognize traffic from a particular
   source IP address (or address range) and handle it specially to
   meet the desired level of service. 

If you think this is a good/bad idea, *now* is the time to say so.
