Isn't it in swarming2.ml?

           if mean_availability > 5 && !min_availability < 3 then
             for i = 0 to up.up_ncomplete - 1 do
               let n = up.up_complete_blocks.(i) in
               if s.s_availability.(n) < 3
                   && should_download_block s n
               then
                 raise (BlockFound i)
             done;

afaik it does download in random order or at least the option random_order_download suggests that. would be a nice feature to have.

A great enhancement for not so common files would be a ranking of chunks based upon their availability. Rare chunks of a file should be downloaded immediatelly upon becoming available. This would presumably greatly increase overall availability of chunks and therefore of complete files.

It is VERY annoying to see, that almost all connected clients show the same availability pattern so my client is going to assimilate this pattern, too. When there is a client making available those chunks that the others havent, it is discouraging to see, that my client first sucks the commonly available chunks first, often loosing the rare one again.
