Description
In Details->Options Peer connections, instead of just
Maximum peers: ___
why not split it into
Maximum download peers: ___ Maximum upload peers: ___
like you do for speed, directly above it. Also do this in Preferences.
I bet this finer control would allow the user to further optimize his connection.
Indeed, you can even have a connector bar between them like I've seen in the gimp program, which changes one when the other is changed, unless the user unclicks the bar to enable independent changing.

I realize this ticket's already been closed, but I wanted to reassert the reasons livings124 gave above. This would almost certainly result in worse speeds.

This fine of control is not going to happen. Besides being bloat, how does one distinguish between seeders and leechers that have data you do not? Implementing such a feature would undoubtedly result in worst speeds, and connecting only to seeders is harmful for the swarm.
