The priority stuff looked like it was going to be useful to implement
simple 'work flow' e.g. when a domain dies, enable the core dump daemon
to hook in and run to completion before the domain reaper daemon, before
the reboot daemon etc

What's the story for doing the above without support for priorites? Are
we going to have to create some other convention that enables the
various dameons to serialize themselves into the right (partial)order?
