API addition to put the new download at the top of the list?

It might be able to do it, but I didn't see it on the list. I would like to be able to tell sab to add the download at the TOP of the queue. I often have long running downloads going that I don't mind being interrupted. My main use for such a feature is to have Episode Butler put new TV episodes at the front of the queue as I care more about how long it is before they are downloaded than most other content. I can see other uses for a feature like this as well.

Another good option would be queue management in general. Move job 10 to job 3 type commands. Much like one can already do from the web UI.

Will be implemented in release 0.5.0 (due in a couple of months).

this would be facilitated by my (long-standing  ;)) request to be able to assign priorities to download jobs. is that coming in 0.5 too?  ;D

Yes, I added priorities a while back.

No no, for the 0.5 development.

  Shame.  At least it's in there, something to look forward to :)  perhaps 0.5.0 will be our Christmas present? ;)
