Yep. Except it's inconvenient in Windows because (a) it has a UI that runs 
in the same process as the render and (b) one doesn't normally launch it 
from the command line where setting the priority is trivial.

It would seem straightforward to continue to support render priority threads 
(and UI priority threads as well) in the Windows version, given that it 
already had separate render threads and UI threads, yes?
