The big problem is that the normal unix task model doesn't cover his at
all -- nice isn't much of a knob.

There's ways in which you can adapt CFS to include such a measure
(search for the EEVDF patches), but I was kinda hoping that tasks that
really desire responsiveness could be made to use SCHED_DEADLINE or
such.
