Any chance we can get an option to limit the upload speed for cloud sync? Right now when a video tries to upload it uses the full speed of my network and saturates my entire network not allowing me to upload or download anything until the upload by cloud sync has been completed. I'm sure many will find it useful for other reasons as well, but right now it's very difficult to upload stuff and be online at the same time.

This would be a very nice feature. In my opinion another nice feature would be the option to limit users to a maximum quality so 1 person doesn't max out my upload connection.
