I believe so, but I can think of one refinement that would help you.
The Runner base class calls _doperiodic() after each file is
processed. In here you could do the rate limit calculation, but
currently there's no protocol for _doperiodic() to tell the for loop
in __oneloop() to break out early. I think I can easily add one.
