[Freeswitch-users] Audio rate changes and clipping on playback

Why is it that FS doesn't offer QoS packet tagging as a feature?  It 
seems kind of kludgy to run another program on the same box to tag the 
packets before they are sent out.  I know everything in FS is pretty 
well thought out, so I am sure there is a reason, I am just curious what 
it is.
