It's an ugly hack. 
With it you have no way to access the userdatabase in the radius server and set queuing based on the info in it.
AFAIR user and bandwith info is stored in flat text files and parsed by the shell scripts.
One can ofcourse code something to make your life easier, e.g a parser connecting to a database and then altering the ALTQ/DUMMYNET rules based on the info fetched from it, just as the shell scripts do.

I think my solution described above should be able to fix the obsticles.
