Feature request: per tracker settings

I'm fairly new to Linux and Deluge really helped ease the pain of losing uTorrent in Windows -- so many thanks to all the developers for the excellent work.

I'm curious though as to whether it would be possible to change settings on a per-tracker basis. For example, I have a couple of trackers that I use frequently where I want to seed everything I have infinitely at maximum speed, whereas with others I just want to shoot for a particular ratio (usually around the 1.0 mark) and I'm not necessarily worried as much about the speed of the exchange. Any way this could be done without altering settings on a torrent by torrent basis? (and as I understand, even the desired ratio plugin will not stop the torrent, merely throttle it).

Any sort of option where one could type in a tracker address and set bandwidth/seeding options for the all the various torrents connecting to that tracker would be great. Or if this can already be done, someone please let me know.

Perhaps it would have to be a change made in libtorrent first, and thus irrelevant here? If so, apologies for the clutter.

Many thanks!

Setting per-torrent limits for a group:
This is possible in the (future) 1.1 label plugin, just give all torrents from 1 tracker the same label.

per-group limits.
We want to do something like this eventually (per label, but per tracker is only a small distinction).
And, yes it would require changes to libtorrent.
