+Vault SDK - Queue
+=================
+
+The `queue` package provides Vault plugins with a Priority Queue. It can be used
+as an in-memory list of `queue.Item` sorted by their `priority`, and offers
+methods to find or remove items by their key. Internally it
+uses `container/heap`; see [Example Priority
+Queue](https://golang.org/pkg/container/heap/#example__priorityQueue)
