No, I don't think we can change userspace-visible behaviour like that.

This will break any existing user that tries to control
queue length through sysfs,netlink or device ioctl.

Take a look at my patch in msg ID 20140109071721.GD19559@redhat.com
which gives one way to set tx_queue_len to zero without
breaking userspace.

That's about 16x less than we were able to queue previously
by default.
How can you be sure this won't break any applications?
