[theme-reviewers] Priority for themes supporting 3.0 features?

[Bavota San]

I wasn't aware that new allowable tags had been added for WordPress 3.0. I think many theme developers are just as uninformed. I have recently updated two of my themes to include the new menu system and the background editor but I did not include any tags to point that out. Magazine Basic 2.6.7 and Feed Me, Seymour 1.2.2 have these features. Should I re-submit them with the new tags?
