I am not a member of iMatix nor a developer on the 0MQ team, so am being a bit rude by responding to your note - Martin S., please forgive me!
One of the most difficult areas with software the nature of 0MQ is exactly the one you are thinking of: "Latency monitoring and adjustment". Given reasonable SLAs between systems/nodes/threads/whatever, it would be great to 1) examine the QoS against the SLAs and 2) be in a position to monitor the state of the system; even better, change parameters on the fly to alleviate things such as congestion, hung clients, or whatever.

Therefore, I would like to start with a solid academic contribution.
