Use case
Forwarding messages to external systems with ratelimits.
Your idea for a solution
Add limits to target.smtp - the code will be very similar to target.remote.
As an alternative consider implementing target-agnostic "target.limited" wrapper.
Consider interaction with target.queue - might be a good idea to skip increasing retries if delivery fails due to timeout waiting on limits.
