We could consider defining rollback steps for a template (probably a different job template) but writing it would probably be very tricky.

David, do you have any real world examples that could illustrate what would be good rollback strategy? The concern I have is that's very hard to define robust rollback script when the original job contains more than a single command, one can't say what exactly failed.
