Research direction

Start by locating the WebWorkerTaskExecutor entry point and its job enqueueing and scheduling logic. Verify how job priorities are represented, then ensure queued jobs are selected by priority rather than enqueue order; done means higher-priority jobs run first.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently, WebWorkerTaskExecutor doesn't re-order jobs based on their priorities, but just schedules them in the order they are enqueued.
