Hello,
We're in the process of converting from Grid Engine to SLURM and we've run 
across a common use case that we don't see an equivalent for. The majority of 
jobs on our system are not bound to specific CPU cores, however a few jobs 
benefited from using CPU affinity, and would request binding during submission.

I don't see any equivalent configuration combination for SLURM: not binding by 
default but allowing users to request it on a specific job's submission (opt-in 
style). I've tried things like TaskPluginParam=autobind=none, but it doesn't 
seem to do what we want. Is there a combination of options that can mirror this 
behavior?

Thanks,
-Andrew Prout
