Delay Pools is a bandwidth cap with selected requests scheduled within each defined cap. You can do both (1) and (2) with a single class 2 pool shared by the entire LAN (1310720 Bps aggregate, 655360 Bbps individual), and a delay_pools_access denying wikipedia domains being pooled by it. But having (3) where transaction X changes pooling mid-way depending on some unrelated transaction is simply not possible.
