Please merge the two patches and factor out the (- org-lowest-priority

Thank you.

Hi Anton, Nicolas, et al,
I'm in favor of tidying up the priority-related code, as I also have
found it hard to follow.
But please do not change the API of these functions, i.e. the signatures
and return values. Their output is used in other packages, including
some of mine like org-rifle, org-super-agenda, and org-ql. If the API
were to change, it would create significant headaches in writing
compatibility code for different Org versions.
I can't easily tell if that's something that's been proposed, but I'm
making the request just in case.
Thanks,
Adam

i don't use the priority stuff, but i think it could perhaps be useful
to use terminology to distinguish the priority stuff from
the priority stuff.
i.e.
1] the stuff i don't use that you are talking about
2] [#A] and all that
when i was a beginner i got confused by that.
:)

These are interesting ideas, and probably worth developing. However,
I don't think it would be a good default. As an user with simple
priority needs, I find A-B-C system very straightforward, and I don't
spend too much time thinking about the priority I should give to some
task. With your system, it would be very troublesome for me: "what is
the difference between a priority of 72 and 73?" or "yesterday, I gave
this task a 70, but maybe it should be 68 because I just tagged this
task at 69.". I.e., I would waste my time tweaking priorities.
OTOH, the idea behind `org-get-priority-function' is to let anyone to
plug-in a different priority system. Maybe the first improvement to the
current system would be to make shifting to any priority-system as easy
as possible, which is, IIUC, what you are suggesting. Once everything is
in place, your ideas could be integrated as an alternate priority system
within Org.
In any case, I cannot help much you with this, as the time I can devote
to Org is virtually non-existent these days. Hopefully, someone else can
guide you, if necessary. Do not worry much about breaking code: do write
tests!
Regards,
