Possible new download priority setting

Hello!

So when I use torrent, I typically download *cough cough* foreign TV shows that have many, many episodes. When I do this, I usually only select one file at a time to download so that it goes faster. That way I can also, for example, watch the 1st episode while the 2nd episode is downloading, the 2nd one while the 3rd is downloading, and so on, allowing me to start the show without having to wait forever for an enormous torrent to finish. But in order for me to do that I have to manually change the download priority each time, often for shows with 100+ episodes, which gets pretty bothersome, especially since I'm usually in the middle of watching the episodes... Is there any way that a priority setting can be made where it automatically starts downloading only one file at a time in a set and then moves on to the next one as it's completed, repeating that until it finishes? Sorry, I hope I'm not being too confusing here!

Thank you for your time!

This would be a great idea! I came across this dilemma quite recently myself and would be great for both music, games and videos. For example some torrents contain multiple files but I'm more partial to a certain file in that torrent. I'm not just talking about episodes or tracks either
