[ogsa-hpcp-wg] Platform Terminate Semantics

When I try to destroy a Finished job through the Platform endpoint, it always returns the following 
error:

java.lang.Exception: Unable to destroy job:
Activity identified by EPR has finished already

Is this because the service doesn't have any per-job state? Are these semantics acceptable. The BES 
spec doesn't really say anything about the semantics of calling this operation after the job status 
is Finished. I treats it more like a cancel operation. The description of the Finished state also 
doesn't say anything about what this means with respect to a job's state.

Anyway, I'm not trying to pick on Platform for doing it this way, but I think it's an interesting 
question that should be addressed at some point.
