With the scheduler conversion we do have multiple priorities (provided
by scheduler) for all generations.. but not yet preemption for all
generations.

But the most common use-case where we need this ends up being display
composition (either fullscreen app/game or foreground app/game
composited via overlay) so I haven't thought too much about the next
step of boosting job priority.  I might leave that to someone who
already has preemption wired up ;-)
