Use Low, Normal, High file priority

Description

In the file priority of torrents, Normal, High, and Higher is an awkward system to use and isn't easy to notice when scrolling through lists of files quickly. Low, Normal (or Medium), and High is more intuitive and would be easier to read.

Change History

This is based on the priorities provided by  libtorrent, from which you can see there is nothing below normal and renaming it to low would be misleading.

Where does the confusion arise? Is it the similarity in naming of High and Highest?

The naming and similarity in icon.

Something more functional, lowering the priority of any one file requires raising the priority of every other. Starting at Normal in the middle allows raising or lowering without changing other torrents.
