Ouch.  That's not how I interpreted your output.  Perhaps we should
rethink the output format.

(1) might be worth doing -- perhaps we could use a list of priorities,
rather than a single priority, and output N copies of the message if
the list is length N.  I'm not sure whether it's worth doing, though.

(2) is a nicety, but it isn't crucial.  I don't see that it's worth
trading generality for.
