Good idea. :) I like the idea of using 3 as the base, as that's a good fallback when it's not really obvious.
You might want to explain that a lower number equals a higher priority, though. At least in my mind (even knowing that lower is higher in this case), adding 1 to a priority is synonymous with increasing the priority.
