Prioritization is still implicitly provided if you vary the queue
lengths or the drop probabilities. 
For example, if you set everything to be exactly the same, and varied
only the drop probability - the VQ with the highest drop probability
will be less important (i.e relatively more of its packets will be
dropped; recall: the drop decision is made before the packet is queued).
