I would like to suggest new feature: Uninterruptible Tasks.

Some tasks involve setup times that would have to be duplicated after every break. So one thing would be to model those explicitly, but as a workaround, it would be nice to be able to tell taskjuggler that no breaks are allowed. Example below.

Hand in hand with this goes another idea: Persistent allocations for nested tasks.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but the persistent flag for allocations for nested tasks is not respected and subtasks are executed by different resources.

Example:

task "A"
{
uninterruptible
allocate joe { alternative jack persistent }
task "B"
task "C"
}

Should be executed without breaks, by either joe _or_ jack.
