I'll try that. I hav just seem some older stuff on the VLAN mailing list which
might do what I want. I'm still investigating.

Nup. Well, not directly. This is going on our backbone, so I'm not taking
traffic straight off the wireless. Ultimately, it will be delivered to a
customer over a wireless link, but there's lots of ethernet between the QOS box
and the wireless.
By the way, wireless != 802.11, there's plenty of other flavours which all
taste just like ethernet.

At this point I'm not locked into any particular discipline, but cbq looked
like it would do what I wanted. I'll look a little further into the other
possibilities.

Try protocol 8021q or whatever its number is - if there are other
protocol filters you will need a different prio or you will get an error.
but for some reason they are not being subjected to the rate limit. If I
pass normal, untagged packets through this setup, it behaves as
expected. However, once I put tagged packets through the bridge, it
fails to shape traffic.

Are these wireless customers?
I've never shaped wireless - do you get alot of extra loss from link
layer, what's the bandwidth, single duplex or is it round robin type?
I wonder if htb tweaked/untweaked/hfsc/policers could be better than cbq
- you may be able to get things better for link latyer, tcpdumps will
show you how bursty things are for users.
