I believe the reason for the change is rooted in Debian Bug #507248:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507248

And I think the thrust was that someone did not like enabling priorities in
a system wide manner and security vulnerability associated.

This is also why we should be asked to give the user -rt priority when
installing JACK now.
