OF is better in most ways than my previous tool, but I do miss this capability.
Another approach might be to use the flag system and On Hold contexts if they're not already in use.

Flagged items would be your priority 1, un-flagged could be priorities 2 and 3, while setting those in priority 4 to an on hold "Someday/Maybe" context would set those off separately.

While the separate projects method can work, it would still need to be reviewed occasionally as new tasks were entered.
