This *could* help with what I would like to see.  Every day I would
like to arrange my agenda tasks for the day in the order that I would
like to do them.  (Setting fake times-of-day for each is somewhat
time consuming; I am now experimenting with an A-Z priority range.
The real-world priority of my tasks is basically all the same, so
I thought I could commandeer the priority setting to get sequencing.)

If easy to set, the sub-priority could be helpful in my sequencing 
goal.
