Please address this problem asap. I'm running background tasks (nice 19) as different users and that makes the whole system a lot slower for everyone. I would normally expect that nice 19 tasks doesn't use any cpu when it's required for other processes.

It's very interesting to have the ability to change the way the scheduler assign CPU time but this change is so fundamental that it shouldn't be the default!
