A message whose priority was raised to now can now also merge with the one before it, as long as the earlier one has the priority the raised message started with.\n\n**Why**\n\nRaising one message's priority no longer splits a batch of queued messages into separate sends.\n\n- Area: Message Queue\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
