Off hand this seems quite reasonable. You do loose the ability to detect
multiple high urgency uploads, and the granularity is limited to 3 types,
but that might not be so important.

I think it addresses Joey's concern?

Mark's problem *could* be addressed by making the urgencies sets.. First
match = priority. By Mark's example you'd list low (< 1.2), high (< 1.4)

I'd suggest the field look like:

Urgency: high (< 1.2-3), medium (< 1.2-4), low (< 1.2-6)
