SpeedControl - Slew Rate?

Seems not many people are using SpeedControl mode. 

I'm working on a direct drive gearmotor configuration using FOC + SpeedControl over UAVCAN for a ground vehicle.

I've got FOC tuning and speed PIDs dialed in but the control code/vesc-tool doesn't seem to have a way to slew the change rate? 

As is, the drive will instantly attempt to achieve the current speed command which causes serious shock to the system. Add backlash from a gearmotor and it compounds the issue.

Is there a slew rate control I'm missing?

PS - I saw a code block diagram someone posted and cant fint it again. Does anyone have a copy? I beleive it showed the entire control loop of each control mode.
