Total ETA or relative ETAs

Might we have ETAs that are not ignorant of the fact that there are other torrents actively being downloaded?

Currently I see:

Torrent_A    DL: X kB/s     ETA:  5 min
Torrent_B DL: X kB/s ETA: 10 min

where the rates are the same. The ETAs are not true, though. The real ETA of B is 7.5 min: 5min left for A + half of (10minB - 5minA).

So we should see:

Torrent_A    DL: X kB/s     ETA:  5 min
Torrent_B DL: X kB/s ETA: 7.5 min

or

Torrent_A    DL: X kB/s     ETA:  5 min
Torrent_B DL: X kB/s ETA: 10 min

Total ETA: 7.5 min

Might we have an option to show relative ETAs for each line or perhaps just a total ETA somewhere else in the GUI that reflects this reality. The assumption that the bandwidth used for A will now be available for B is valid if the user's max download rate limit has been hit either in uTorrent settings or via their actual internet connection limit.
