I imagine you could just use a special PRIORITY value to represent
separators, something like this:

   IF defined("web")
      ...
      FSET msgprefix(x) iif(x==0, Bull+NrmPre, x<999, BrRed, x<1001, Red, x<1400, BrBlu,x<5000, Blu, NrmPre)
      ... 
   ENDIF

   REM PRIORITY 0 MSG Reminders: %"%"%
   REM 25 +7 MSG Check Cars %"%"%

Is that about what you're looking for?
