General Discussion / Re: Traffic Shaping and aliases

Has there been any headway made on this capability by chance?
I would like to use OPN to shape traffic from Youtube. I found a list of Youtube IP addresses and got them into a alias list, but there is no way to use the Alias list for shaping. I don't want shape based on source as there are other tasks I don't want to slow down that are equally difficult to define by IP.
Lets say 2MB to Youtube but unlimited to Microsoft for O365 and related services. Both are huge lists of IPs for IPV4 alone, but using FQDN can simplify it from the rule standpoint substantially. I understand there are limitations to the underlying components that support shaping.
Thank you!
