This turned up when searching the list of iproute2 patches in RHEL6 for unpublished changes. It dates back to a feature request from 2012 by a customer who wanted to know when a command piped into tc was finished processing. Looking at the ticket again, it appears you rejected this patch in 2013 already. So I guess everything has been said but "sorry for the noise"!
