Oh interesting! So say if you wanted to call 3rd party API in your function, with some exponential backoff retry, without blocking your concurrency allowance, would you model that as recursively calling the same function with an attempt argument?

Does this look nice in the observability layer?

Yeah, that will be the way to go. This is actually how on of customers is achieving this behaviour for polling analytics.

Right now our Executions list is not ideal for such pattern but we will soon release filtering based on arguments which will help to get all the executions linked to a specific sequence.
