Actually, I updated the docs yesterday. I did mention that we can perform 
QoS on incoming connection but that would really mean, either dropping 
packets as they come in or severely limitting your downstream bandwidth.

I don't really think you can somehow Shape what your ISP sends you 
unless you have access to the ISP's routers etc.

If I am mistake, please educate me.
