+	<longdescription>Priority is a pure-Python implementation of the priority
+		logic for HTTP/2, set out in RFC 7540 Section 5.3 (Stream Priority).
+		This logic allows for clients to express a preference for how the
+		server allocates its (limited) resources to the many outstanding HTTP
+		requests that may be running over a single HTTP/2 connection.
