Mostly the first, in that we need a pipeline to be able to submit jobs and check them.


Problem is that with CI we cannot really hold off submitting jobs because that happens ad-hoc when a build finishes.

I understand the need to have a clean lab pipe. However, for that we need to work on a mechanism that allows you
to put submitted jobs into a queue that isn't processed etc.

Would also be useful to put jobs there during maintenance so the frontend doesn't fail submitting it's job.
