I could.  Would you like to suggest a syntax?
Usually the numbers would be the same except for short transition
periods, so I'm not convinced of the value.

Currently if the target is reduced while the client is idle there can be
a longer delay before the slots are actually freed, but I think 2
lease-renewal SEQUENCE ops would do it.  If/when we add use of the
CB_RECALL_SLOT callback the delay should disappear.

Maybe.  By echo 3 > drop_caches does a pretty good job.  I don't see
that we need more.
