I think of jobs rather as of prerequisites. If a prerequisite is somehow automatically satisfied (dunno, only back up on Mondays, and today is Tuesday) then it succeeds immediately. There is no "skipping". Wfm.

I find embedding logic into DSLs usually quite painful and less portable than having a static job graph and all the logic firmly in my own code.
