[mythtv-users] Limit a particular user job to one instance

I am kicking off a bulk transcoding of most of my recordings, but to free
up space for all of the new fall shows, as well as to make them watchable
on our mobile devices across wifi.

Anyway... my system wil be transcoding for days... and I still want
commflagging jobs to run.  Is there any way to restrict a particular
userjob to a single instance so that my other job slots can be used by
comflagging and media downloads?

I know I could batch process them from the command line, or even modify my
script such that the job only queue's the transcode and finishes, while the
transcode script itself processes them in order.  But before I hack
something like that together, I want to be sure there that I am not
overlooking a setting that does what I need.

Thanks
