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. Jesse
