Greetigs,
I scanned the open taks list and did not find this. I apologize if I missed it.

My suggeation is to have a command button(s) available in the left pane of the task list tab, that will allow setting priorities to individual tasks in the task list, especially a command to "run until complete".

Now that multicore CPU's are common, this would allow for much greater flexibility in managing several projects on a single box:
1) where it can be seen that a workunit may not be returned within the specified deadline.
2) trying to complete one projects tasks without having to suspend another project entirely,
3) or suspending individual tasks of that 2nd project, which can be quite cumbersome when managing tasks that number 30 or more, as well very inefficient utilization.
4) provides the user a better option to avoid aborting tasks to achieve the same, if the only alternatives are #2 and #3 above.

Thank you.
