There are ways to integrate such a tool easier than the way trickle does; by using the 'ProxyCommand' configuration option of ssh, like 'ProxyCommand netcat $yourhost 22' or similar. Unfortunately, I don't know a suitable program offhand, netcat does not seem to have a bandwidth limiting option. But then such a beast is relatively easy to write.
