Urgent already propagated — a preview inherits its render's priority, so an urgent export stays ahead all the way to QC. The complaint was the other half: at equal priority previews always ran last. The queue orders by priority then age, and a preview job is only created when its render finishes, so it is always newer than the renders queued beside it. Ten shots ran as ten renders and then ten previews, and nothing was reviewable until the end of the batch. render.previewPriorityBoost (default 1) subtracts from the render's priority when the preview is created, so a shot finishes end to end before the next render starts. The boost never promotes a job across the urgent threshold: a normal preview must not inherit permission to run outside the render window that its render never had. Set it to 0 for the old behaviour. Worth knowing separately: a worker will not claim preview jobs at all while an artist has AE open on that machine, which during the day is the larger reason previews appear to wait.
