Geez, that's the beauty of an example.  It almost seems obvious.
I vote for either adding it to the (already lengthy) man page,
or perhaps including in a /usr/share/examples/ipfw/etc.

One further question:  is it possible to use separate queues of
the same weight to insure fairness -- i.e. is there a round robin
approach to queues of equal weight with backlogs?

This would make sense when multiplexing data from different
subnets -- I'd like to make sure that the three nets share
bandwidth equally when the shared connection is at capacity,
but to permit any to use all of the available bandwidth if
the demand from the other nets isn't affected.
