I'm not sure Vyacheslav needs just this, but I've thought about the
possibility to recreate the 'shadow' copy of currently used qdisc
tree (with some updates of course) while it's running. So, the
possibility of using all the same handles and classids, and even
dev names if possible, and doing such a switch without any visible
break.
