This sounds good.  To the point and lets the user know why it is running out of 
order.

I'd like to see "Prioritized to meet deadline" in the UI, next to "Running".

Subject: Re: [boinc_dev] High priority status message removed.
The removal followed a question and answer session at the BOINC workshop in 
Budapest earlier this week. The OS scheduler mis-interpretation was one that I 
highlighted, but there was also a problem with users thinking that High 
Priority was a project-chosen queue-jumping facility. I think we're much better 
off without those confusions over terminology, but I agree with John that it 
would be good if the reason for non-FIFO running could be marked in some way - 
if we can find a less-frightening word.
