A feature request has already been filled to be able to set
Max-Idle-Instance to 0:
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5764

This issue has been escalated to the engineering team, and I will
update the bug report once I have any update from them.

I found the following issue related to *Min* pending latency and Tasks
queue in the public issue tracker:

"Allow tasks or task queues to hint scheduler about execution priority"
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=5773

Were you referring to this ?
