It is *one* new try after every 24 hours I suggest. (I am only talking
about tiles, that have been requested by the requeueer). So you are right,
that "higher priority" may not be the way to go. But I think "top of the
queue" after those timeouts is sensible.

If you fear, that error tiles get rendered again and again, then the
problem are more those requests at higher priorities where the client
*reports* errors immediately. Perhaps *those* should not be requeued at
once (as it is now) but too be taken care of by the requeueer.
