I think that works for me. Only caveat is that urgent data packets usually are 1 byte in size (even the socket's sendurgentdata takes int as parameter).
I think it would be better if it stays on its own as a special so that people don't misuse this HIGHEST priority. Moreover every server hates to receive urgent data packets as they can be potential to DOS attacks. WDYT?
