I find the priority settings almost unusable for me. For personal things, I just use them simply with the default settings to mark tasks that really should be done ASAP ([#A]) - and tasks which really aren't so important at all ([#C]). This is fine enough. But for my work tasks, priorities are really important as they are given to me externally. So I need a lot of priority levels, both up and down from the default. And atleast I'm not so savvy with alphabet, that I could instantly see how much less important [#P] is than [#T] - especially with respect to the default level etc. So, how about adding a new feature, org-todo-use-numeric-priorities. This would make the priorities be like: * TODO [#+2] Task 1 * TODO [#+1] Task 2 * TODO Task 3 * TODO [#-1] Task 4 * TODO [#-2] Task 5 And there wouldn't need to be any "highest" or "lowest" values for the priorities. Also, I couldn't ever figure out why there needs to be a way to specify the default priority explicitly (eg. [#B] vs. lines that have none) - so I'd just vote for dropping that - no priority listed if the priority is zero. This way I could always set some task on a higher priority if necessary, or a lower one - and I'd only have problems if I need to have something in between priorities (if we don't go for float values ;)), but that should be easily solvable by a bit of preplanning or just editing a few task priorities.
