Priority for skin updates

Skins should be tagged as a recommended or higher priority rather than "Unofficial" so skin updates are easier to get.
Probably a lazy thing since we could easily download from the forums.....
Short, sweet, and to the point.

What bothers you specifically with the "Unofficial" priority? the fact that they only appear if you already have the asset?
If so, then at this point this is the intended behavior and you still have to download individual skins from the forum the first time. After that, the Launcher will keep them updated (skins are synchronized only once a day during the night, at the moment). Higher priorities are meant for official downloads that are required for players to connect to JEDI servers.
Future versions of the Launcher may provide direct access to the Game Assets repository in a new tab, to let you pick and install new assets without having to download them manually... maybe for 0.5.1?

Maybe I'm being too picky, but RPmod is JEDI exclusive.
If you could, in a future update, make a tab that took the user to the skin database and sorted everything by order of recently updated or added, and give a prompt which tells the user that a skin is not downloaded and give the option (or force the user) to download it.
Just my thoughts.
