Maybe instead of "PRE-BOARD" the boarding pass should show "GLOBAL SERVICES" or "UNITED 1K" so if you flash it to the GA they usher you forward. GROUP 1 is definitely not the best.
That's more a question of etiquette than policy, but I have never seen anyone attempt to cut the group 1 line mid-process. I wouldn't, anyway.
Also the BP does say either GLOBAL SERVICES or PREMIER 1K in large print along the bottom. Or are you proposing to replace the 1 in the square with all that text? I suppose if you want to change the rendering of boarding group for the pre-board eligible, just using '0' seems logical.
