I like your idea, more controls for the attack flags are cool.

It is also cool that you thought about how the GUI could look like. But 
a drag and drop system is perhaps not very easy to code, it is probably 
simpler to solve this with buttons [like the ones used to define the 
minimum required level of warriors at a flag].

The buttons could look like that in an advanced tab of the flag:

 attack first
 | second priority
 | | do not attack
 | | |
 O O O warriors
 O O O workers
 O O O defense buildings
 O O O upgrade buildings
 O O O schools
 O O O inns and hospitals

The "O" are buttons. Buttons can only be in one of the three positions 
at the same time. By default the whole second row [second priority] 
would be selected. Perhaps there could be little icons of the units and 
the buildings instead of text, the same could be made for the top 
legend, then the bottom rollover help could show the text to explain 
what each button is for [like "attack first warriors" or "second 
priority attack schools"].

It's a cool suggestion! I'll add this email as comment to your feature 
request on savannah.
