Miners could include their fee tiers in the coinbase, but this is obviously o=
pen to manipulation, with little recourse (unless they are a pool and miners=
 move away because of it).=20

In any event, I think that trying out a solution that is both simple and inv=
olves the least number of parties necessary is preferable.

Have miners set their tiers, have users select the level of quality they wan=
t, ignore the block size.

Miners will adapt their tiers depending on how many transactions actually en=
d up in them. If for example they set the first tier to be $1 to be included=
 in the current block and no user chooses that level of service, they've obv=
iously priced themselves out of the market. The opposite is also true; if a t=
ier is popular they can choose to increase the cost of that tier.
