This is a pretty good idea.

There are a lot of third-party applications that can act as "remote controls" for Transmission... there's a Web GUI, two Windows GUIs, a Java GUI, ones for iPhones and Android phones, and on, and on. The important part here is that we need to not change the JSON-formatted RPC API they use to talk to Transmission.

> 5. Instead of changing tr_sessionSetSpeedLimit(), a new function should be introduces to change the speed in bytes (for example tr_sessionSetSpeedLimitBytes). The old functions will then still work.

This is a good idea. I don't see any downside to this. :)
