Job arrays can kind of be used for that:
From http://slurm.schedmd.com/job_array.html:
A maximum number of simultaneously running tasks from the job array may
be specified using a "%" separator. For example "--array=0-15%4" will
limit the number of simultaneously running tasks from this job array to 4.

Is there a way for users to self limit the number of jobs that they
