Default Favourite-Share folder

Hi,

I'd like to be able to set a folder as favourite share, so that LimeWire always keeps at least one upload slot open for uploading files from that folder.

I serve my own songs via my own computer, but I want to be able to share my own works alongside with others (Magnets to my own can be found here: http://draketo.de/inhalt/lieder.html ). As others are more requested than mine, the Queue ist full most of the time, but I want the upload of the featured files to begin at once without having to disabling the sharing of all other files.

I'd like this feature, even if I can't see how it could be simple.

btw Arne: as a workaround, I've set another disconnected LW on a different computer and tuned to a different port that shares just my test magnets. I can see running multiple LW's this way. In Panther, each LW could be on a different user to keep the preferences and ports separate.

I wonder if a single LW could have separate preference files for each folder.

It could be very simple (for programming it, I can't say...) by setting aside one upload slot for those files.

I'd like to simply have a cathegory in the sharing-prefs. Not only "incomplete", "download" and "directories", but also "favourite share", where I can specify that folder.

To run 2 LimeWires I don't have the processing power (even one drains my processor quite a bit and slows down my computer).

Or the slowest of the uploads could be booted in favor of another file with a higher share priority value. Or maybe a pause upload on standard slot/open temp slot for priority files.
