I think sysctls are a bad idea given jails have per-jail flags these days.

Maybe also only allow re-nicing to be nicer but not less nice?
^^^^ for sure ! start a jail with it's max priority and the root within can allow nicer priorities only..
you can always add priority from teh master (parent) environment outside.
