I think it's inconsistent, as per comment #3, and we should change it now that
we have the opportunity, before gnonlin is released for 1.0.

I would change the property type to a signed int, and continue to use -1 as the
special value. The lowest priority is then G_MAXINT.

The current code is also broken btw, in that it assumes sizeof(int) = 4.
G_MAXUINT32 is used instead of G_MAXUINT.
