Details

The IteratorWorkerFramework uses a backing off retry if it encounters errors in running a worker task. However, not all errors can be resolved with just a retry. The worker task needs to return more than just 'ok' or 'failure'. Perhaps it needs a 'permanentFailure' so that it won't fall into a hopeless retry cycle that will never recover.
