We actually do this with PackageKit. It used to work when we were using yum, but I don't think the libdnf code does any kind of throttling. Certainly PackageKit knows which transactions are background and non-interactive, so it certainly makes sense to dribble those down slowly. I think this kind of issue is really fixed the hard way, i.e. fixing bugs and adding unimplemented features rather than just adding complex UI workarounds.
