Description

Currently there is no way for a scheduler to instruct the executor to kill a certain task immediately, skipping any possible timeouts and / or kill policies. This may be desirable in cases like, e.g., the kill policy is 10 minutes but something went wrong, so the scheduler decides to issue a forceful kill.
