We've got pluggable congestion control modules thanks to lstewart.

You can implement any non-standard congestion control method by adding
your own module.  They can be compiled into the kernel or loaded as KLD.

I consider implementing this as a CC module the correct approach instead
of adding yet another sysctl.  Doing a CC module like this is very easy.
