(Get the code!)
The plan in 0.10 is that jobs will be in "automatic" mode by default, and can be placed into "manual" mode when necessary.
"manual" mode means that the job will still show up in lists, and new instances will still be created as necessary, but they will not be automatically started by Upstart.
A sysadmin may still use "start" to start them though (always do what the SA says)
We'll want an additional "upgrade" mode as well; a package should be able to place a job in upgrade mode for the period that it is replacing the software. We actually need to be able to place a job in upgrade mode before we create the configuration, which is somewhat interesting ;)
