Support priorities for tasks added by email

Support the !px notation, where x is a priority number (eg, 1 or 3) for tasks added by email, just as can be done in the Web interface.

Since @ tags, dates and reminders are available for email-added tasks, this seems to be the only core functionality that isn't available via email. Many people rely heavily on prioritization, so it seems to me like a major shortfall.

I find this functionality extremally important when working with todoist and creating task by emails (which is cool feature btw ;-) )

+1 - a surprising omission given date and tag inclusion!

+1 - essential and a little strange that it's not already possible.....

+1 Would make a great addition and complement the Date and Tag capability
