Reports of a similar feature emerged last May, when Facebook trialled a paid post-highlighting service in New Zealand.

I clicked it, which brought up a dialogue box saying that, if something was important, I could elect for all of my friends to see it. Some of the text in the dialogue box was a bit garbled - it said "do you want to Announcement this post", for example - so it looks like a feature in beta

The results of that process look like this:

We showed Facebook Andrew's screenshots and it replied, through an Australian SpokesFriend, that "We're constantly testing new features across the site. This particular test is simply to gauge people’s interest in this method of sharing with their friends. ®
