Sidekiq: Runtime queue selection

[sirwolfgang]

Is there a way to override the default queue for a worker at runtime?

I have a synchronization task that mostly will run at low priority, providing a level of guaranteed eventual consistency. However there are some events, like an update, that naturally require a higher priority synchronization. Ideally I would like to be able to specify this option when calling #perform_async.

Naturally it wouldn't be possible for this to safely be able to have this option in #perform_async's *args, but could possibly be done with an ActiveRecord style chaining syntax. Worker.queue(:high).perform_async.

Or as said in another issue, MyWorker.set(queue: 'somequeue').perform_async(...)
