SOCKS Shaper

I run Shaper, and I have two Queues.  Priority (for my VOIP phone) and Default.

What I want to do is pass Torrent traffic into a third Queue, called Low Priority.  Since many Torrent clients support SOCKS, I figured the solution would be to set up a SOCK5 server on OpenSense, and have that tunnelled through the Shaper Queue.

Question is, the best way to do that.  Maybe have a Alias IP on the LAN, which SOCKS binds to, and filter by that?

So I set up a Virtual IP on the LAN.  I installed the Shadowsocks plugin, but it seems that it doesn't support regular SOCKS5.  :(
