vSZ AP Groups - allow us to set the BSS min rate PER AP Group

Sometimes in larger deployments, I have AP Groups such as "High Density", "Outdoor", "Hall", "Low Density".
I would love to be able to set the BSS min rate  per AP Group.
Currently, this can only be set per WLAN Config and that operates across all the AP Groups.

I'm not terribly interested in "smart BSS rate settings" because I know that physical layout of the Hall and my High Density AP group, the APs are close together and I would like to set a BSS or 18 Mbps or even 24 Mbps.

This has lots of benefits;
  • shrinks the effective cell size
  • provides greater bandwidth because BSS frames and every client must be at the minimum high rate I set
  • stops clients hanging on as they move away from AP
  • stops further away clients form associating at all, if you cant decode the higher speed BSS then you can't associate
