I would like to request a feature that was present in utorrent when you download a torrent that is a batch file like a season of a tv show or anime you can prioritize the episodes to download in order (1->22). It was a feature called "Use Fine Grained File Priorities"
As of now in a batch file the Download Priority options are only Normal, High and Maximum. This will only let you priroritize the first and second episode in a season, which means if you go to sleep and the download is slow you only get the first two episodes when you wake up. In utorrent it's 1-15 if I'm not mistaken. So you can potentially get at least half if not the first 15 episodes when you wake up.
Use case
For downloading batch file torrents in order (tv show seasons, movie trilogies, anime season, etc.) in order of episode number.

Isn't simply using the sequential option better than this?
Downloading random pieces of each file and allowing to prioritize by file name or any other order might be quicker to get torrent completed and would be better for swarm health than current sequential.
Some *.torrent files have pieces of files optimized and not by folder or filename order, so unfortunately current sequential download option isn't good enough.
If the current Download in sequential order in Torrent Options doesn't guarantee to download files by name order or if it's actually overriding or conflicting with Download first and last piece or individual file priorities, then it should be named Download pieces in sequential order, unless it is actually always guaranteed to ignore custom individual file priorities and download files alphabetically.
So better wording, tooltips or more options to control what to ignore, honor or prioritize is necessary to avoid misunderstanding.
