Correct, but that would be a minor change.

I think you need to change `org-get-priority' signature. You can remove
the string argument and possibly add an optional argument: a buffer
position. It should handle inheritance without any additional function,
if a global variable, e.g., `org-priority-use-inheritance' is non-nil.

Note that you can already achieve inheritance by setting
`org-get-priority-function' to a function that searches priority cookies
among ancestors of the current headline.

From `org-entry-get' -> `org-entry-properties'.

I don't think there's any change involved in "org-colview.el".

You should start with `org-get-priority'. Most things are going to work
once it is updated.
