The person was not sprawling, she was actually laying down in a curled up position to block both the aisle and center seat. Not sure why the flight attendants thought that was appropriate either. It was quite obvious what this woman was trying to do.

I'm not sure. That's what she kept saying but I think she's was referring to either being on the "A list" or having pre-boarding privileges. But, I don't fly SW very often so I'm not fully versed on what SW calls priority boarding.

This was not a "Customer of size" nor had they purchased the extra seat. The woman probably weighed about 120lbs and was about 5'5" tall. So, no extra size at all. Just being difficult and being vocal about it. She literally stated that she was a priority customer and that I should be sitting the back of the plane since I boarded towards the end. That is actually not a policy.

I'm not a fan of Southwest open seating and it seems to continue to create confusion and angst among travelers. On a recent flight (and many others) priority boarders try to "block" the center seat by sprawling themselves or their carry-on across the center seats. Southwest should make it clear to all travelers, regardless of boarding status, that they get one seat and cannot block center seats with their personal belongings or by laying across two seats.
