Inverse Scheduler

[anyd]

I think an awesome feature would be an Inverse Scheduler check box - this would be really useful sometimes when juggling downloads between peak & off peak; rather than reconfiguring the table when the need arises, just hit the check box, and inverse the table!

I can't really see a real situation where this would be useful... Do your peak times change randomly or something?

An example would be where you typically regulate your off-peak usage, to take full advantage of the download quota, so the scheduler is set to only allow uTorrent to download during these times.

Occasionally when the off-peak allocation is getting dangerously low, and the prospect of getting shaped looms (speed throttled to about 64 kilobytes), it helps to set up the scheduler table for peak allocation so as to minimize off-peak usage. This basically means reversing the scheduler table manually. I thought it might be useful to have a check box do this automatically.

Which scheduler mode is the opposite of another...? It's not clear-cut.
