That is absolutely correct; unless the [general] section of your 
extensions.conf contains 'priorityjumping=no' (or the equivalent), then 
your system will continue to use priority jumping as before.

The sample config file, though, does contain this directive, so new 
users will default to having it turned off. In the post-1.2 development 
branch we will also be changing the default in the code itself, so that 
when 1.4 is released then it will be the default for everyone.
