Anyway, it is clear that echos are to be limited differently of
errors.
Even then I wonder if it is worth the code. If you are rate-limiting,
who cares if drop the odd echo/reply?
ICMP echo/reply is a useful diagnostic tool --- but on the internet as
we have it today, its limitations need to be understood by the user :)
