I haven't tried your client, but I use gtk-gnutella, and its authors have the exact same philosophy as you have.
All the things you described as being configurable in your client, I can configure in gtk-gnutella.
I can even define the maximum size of messages to accept and relay, but this is not a GUI settings, and must be done manually in the config file. I use it to limit queries to 128 bytes, in effect dropping all those verbose XML queries from LW.
