Re: [Bug-gnubg] Doing a rollout as a background job

The set priority functionality is mainly meant for windows users  who
don't have as easy access to prioritizing their programs as you do on
linux.

Going below  the current nice value is for root only, which gives root
the ultimate control over job priorities.
