Audio Waveform Generation priority bug

Premiere used to behave differently on the priority of audio waveform generation.

If you had dropped a lot of files into Premiere, they would start to generate waveforms.

But if you had to look urgently at one particular file, you could drag it onto a sequence timeline, and it would prioritise that audio waveform generation as the very next task.

Now, in the last few versions, dragging a particular file onto a sequence timeline won't generate the audio waveform as the very next item.  It instead just puts it at the end of the queue, which might mean it could be behind a hundred other files.

Can this behaviour be returned to how it did the priority waveform generation previously?
