[saga-rg] tasks and jobs...

Certainly, no.
Jobs and Tasks are two different things, and they are this on purpose.

However, Tasks always have been the mechanism for asynchronous operation,
which is kind-of obsoleted by having asynchronous ops directly.

If you want to work on the "S" of SAGA: why not unify both Tasks and Jobs
into a better "Job" notion, and do local asynchronous operations via
async, local calls?
