I always love features like that. Yes, give users more power.
Imagine, you are in a situation where internet is to break up and things gotta be fast. Or there is a DDoS and you don't care if you order something right now or it goes through a little later.
This is underrated.

fascinating idea, do any other implementations support something similar?
Is it fair to compare this ability to make fee/speed trade-offs to Bitcoin’s mempool where you can pay more to get your transaction approved faster?

Not that I'm aware of. But someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Partly yes. But for Onchain the upper speed limit is waiting for a block to be mined. This can take time depending on luck and there is no chance to influence it. Even worse if you want the security of 3 or 6 blocks on top of it.

Headline features: taproot address support (I suppose for spending into funding txs?) and 95% reduction in DB space usage.

One thing i wonder is how a 95% database reduction compares to the current state for those running other implementations?
Said differently, how much larger were LND databases than Core LN or Eclair databases prior to this LND upgrade?
