c. 10 days later I received the standard apology email explaining they are carefully managed and that there is no availability. Subsequently thought of calling up the Priority line, but never got round to it, or checked MMB

I logged in today to check status of my flights (in light of the current geopolitical situation) and noted that the BKK>DOH>LHR leg of my itinerary in MMB has two parts:

'Unconfirmed' flights - stating Business (U) - cannot access seat maps etc.

'Confirmed' flights - original booking class (V) - full access to seat maps

Have to admit I haven't seen this before, but was wondering whether this is normal, or am I actually waitlisted at the moment?

No intention to call and find out, as in light of current events there are those that have far more pressing problems than mine.
Yes you're waitlisted, but with QR Gold status you can call them 3 months prior to departure to request release in redemption seats.
