Summary:  "priority" doesn't work or could be enhanced

Original Submission:  In an attempt to prefer almost-finished files over 
yet-a-lot-to-download files I tried to sort them by setting priorities. 
priority 30 for the most finished file, 29 for the second and so on.



After setting priorities and restarting mlnet, priorities are shown correctly 
within the web interface.



However, they don't appear to make any difference. Find attached screenshots 
for two files, both taken a few minutes after restarting mlnet and with both 
files started downloading long time before. While the file with the higher 
priority is still unfinished, download began for the file with lower priority 
while the download source has both files "in stock".



Perhaps, it's just a limitaiton. Before requesting a specific file, mlnet 
should ask a source wether one of the files with higher priority is available 
as well and ask for this file, first.
