,,, As you suggest, government agencies are wary of being seen throwing resources at making the lives of fat-cats easier. And where a "priority lane" for immigration is set up, the facility is often badly managed: single-server queues get halted by difficult cases, and/or clogged up by nationals insisting on premium treatment when they'd be better off in the regular multi-server lines (try Istanbul for that!).
