Conclusions:
(1) We really should DEPRECATE Restart-Job
in IPP/2.x Profiles and explain the rationale.
Given that there is no other way to retry a failed print job,
I would be against complete deprecation but OK with
clarification or partial deprecation (i.e. OK to restart a
canceled, stopped, or aborted job, not OK to restart a
completed job...)
<ira> Good point - I like keeping this operation ONLY
for use on unsuccessful jobs - but I think still OPTIONAL
in 2.1 (Enterprise), because of your stored resources
reasoning (below).

(2) Reprocess-Job is technically OK, but costly.
Should remain OPTIONAL, even for IPP/2.2
(Production Printing).
I would argue that production printing already requires large
resources to support things like document objects and the tight
integration with the print device, so Reprocess-Job should be
REQUIRED for IPP/2.2 and OPTIONAL for IPP/2.0 and IPP/2.1.
<ira> I agree. </ira>
Cheers,
