Description

It was brought up in the users mailing list that a nice feature to have would be to allow Back Pressure to be configured on a Connection based on how full the Content Repository is. For instance, we may want to apply Back Pressure so that we stop ingesting data from 'less important' sources once the repository is 65% full but allow data from more important, or more time-sensitive data to enter the flow until the repository is 90% full.
