We want a way to let people re-run partially completed jobs with a different job name. Based on designers' experience, it should help with debugging by avoiding the deletion of partial results for any failed steps in the old job.
Unfortunately, we don't have a good way to find what the "last" job name was, especially if the user has been running design experiments with many different names. I've added a Schema parameter to let people specify a new name to resume the job with, but I am open to other approaches.
Includes a CI test which verifies that jobs can be resumed with a new name, without deleting old results/logs/etc.
