Crazy timing! I've been testing my implementation for a few months, made 
some big adjustments a couple weeks ago and plan to submit a patch this 
weekend.

Well, I asked for it, so there's at least one person asked for it! Very 
tedious busy-body work setting priority on dozens of subtasks when they 
all share the same priority as their parent task. Will save me hours of 
effort over the course of a year. I'm surprised it wasn't already 
implemented.

FWIW, I found a few requests for this feature while searching for a 
solution. However I implemented it because it's useful to me, not 
because anyone asked me to.
