Perhaps, but it's bound to be very confusing - X number of jobs seemingly 
"running".

In our current phase of development, we have _at least_ ten commits a day. 
We work in sprints
of two weeks. So the QA people will be one sprint behind. That means the 
timeout needs to be
at least two weeks (plus one day, but preferably all through THEIR two 
weeks sprint).

That means that when QA picks up, there will be 10 jobs * (10 [working] 
days + weekends) * 2 sprints
(one for dev, one for QA).

Which of those was the correct commit they where supposed to QA?! Finding 
the right one
of all those "running" jobs, will be a nightmare!

Not to mention it is going to be difficult to find out from all those 200+ 
running jobs to distinguish
really stuck ones from the ones that's waiting for input. Not to mention 
the fact that I kill of all
Jenkins executors automatically at night (to save us some money :) and spin 
up new, fresh ones
in the morning (weekdays only). So those "running" jobs will "vanish" 
anyway.


That being said, this is _MY_ "vision" on how I would like it to be. My 
vision might be blurred, so
feel free to correct me or give me a better option..
