Sometimes i want to prioritize one or more workunits to get worked "now" or also "later".
But there are no settings in the Boinc-Manager to do this.
At the moment a tried to stop all other work, then the WUs that i want are running. BUT after i allow the other tasks to continue, the wanted WUs stop and the old tasks are running again.
I tried some changes in the workload buffer (1 day, 2 days, 3 days) but it doesnt help.

It seems that the boinc manager is using some complicated (and maybe in most cases useful) algorithms to decide, which WU is running.

Is it possible to give the user some kind of control?
E.G. right click on a WU and say: "Highest priority" (or lowest...)
For hole projects this is popssible, but not for single workunits.
