New Priorities View Table Area - Allow My Focus to be set by others (based on permissions)

Hi there, 

In the new Priorities list/area, it would be great if the My Focus field could also be set by someone else aside from just the user viewing the table. For instance, if a Project Owner/Manager could mark a task or issue as "Urgent" and that choice would reflect on the work lists for the people assigned so they would know that is a high priority item. This would help with quicker and more accurate prioritization and work management. 

Thank you!
