I'd rather have a dialog than a privilege,
This is about expertise, not privilege. For reporters, the priority is
usually muuuuuuch higher than for us or even other users of Qt, because
the priority is assessed from the viewpoint of their project.
Let's say I've written this audio player app and found some quirk in
QtMultimedia that makes skipping impossible every once in a while. Users
give one star ratings and complain loudly.
What priority is this bug for me? Well, P0 of course.
For us? Not so much...
That's when one uses the privilege of being the assignee to change the
priority to what you think it is, with an explanation to the reporter
why it isn't a P0.
Removing the ability for a reporter to change priority does not seem all
that inclusive to me.
my 2c...

Joerg
