This wouldn't be all that difficult - just record each event as it

up, it just deals with any un-dealt-with event, as it were.

We currently only queue events in memory, but it's not like it's a
huge architectural shift to record the events on disk.


+1. Perhaps also using the same principle of "complete",
"incomplete", "failed", "skipped" runs that a package management
tool like YUM does.  Give users the option - rather than make it
mandatory to complete the events in a run if the previous one failed.

That would definitely be important, but I don't really know how the interface of that would be handled. Track whether the user is on an interactive console, and ask a question? Send a notice to the server and update the dashboard or something?

Seems a bit complicated.
