If you use poptop you get pptp. The benefit is that it's native in versions of windows back to win98 and easy for the user to set up.
setting up traffic management in front of poptop shouldn't be to hard. I've done quite a bit of work with data management to understand how to keep track of what data each user has used. I'd be keen as to replicate your work and work with you to do the same.
