I think the default present(@) can be defined in config/revsets.toml.
Or do you want to set prioritized branch in addition to @? In that case, which revset should be displayed first? We might have to add a list of prioritized revsets.

Good point, I originally tried adding it addition, but I don't think it made a big difference from my testing, and a single revset was always enough for me.

Maybe it should just expect that the revset only contains a single revision. I'm not sure renderdag does much with multiple prioritizations, so usually coalesce(1, 2, 3) is what you want instead of 1 | 2 | 3.
Especially since the order of the revset is not defined.

Yes, the set size should usually be 0 or 1, but I wouldn't add extra check for that.
We might want to add some sorting or ordered union revset functions that can be used only in certain context, but I'm not sure.

The option will be used to prioritize branches of the `jj log` graph to
be displayed on the left.
This can make them more readable in some situations.
An example would be
```
[revsets]
log-graph-prioritize = "coalesce(description("megamerge\n"), trunk())"
```
