OK, now I understand what you're trying to say, and yeah, it does sound like Jenkins' API is at fault here. (Have I ever mentioned just how much I hate Jenkins? :) What do you think about calling cancel_queue() a best-effort operation? After all, there's usually a tiny window between when a build is queued to when it's popped off the queue, assigned a build number, and started.

At the very least, a distinguishable error should be raised. (Distinguishable in that it should not be JenkinsException, although it should be a subclass of JenkinsException).
