World Server - Dedicate an Auto Action in a Workflow Step to a server

It would be a great performance benefit if we can dedicate a workflow step Auto Action to a particular server in a cluster of several servers.

e.g.
We want to send all machine translation requests i.e. from MT Auto Action and MT Adapter to a dedicated server from a cluster. e.g. There are 5 pool members behind the load balancer and we want to dedicate server no.3 to process all MT requests.

Currently this feature doesn't exist. As a result, we see several requests go on wait state as MT processing takes time. We wanted to avoid impact on other projects by sending MT requests to a dedicated server node only.

If we can add this feature in future releases then there would be lots performance benefit.

Alternatively, If we cannot dedicate the MT AA workflow step to a fixed server node then is it possible to set the MT AA workflow step to lower priority i.e. 2 or 3 so that non-MT tasks should run on priority-1 and avail idle workflow engines first.
