TTL: reinsert

I am interested in recommended usage approach for reinsertion of a job on TTL expiry, where the reason is failure of the user app to call 'done' in time. This is mentioned in several other issues, but I think the usage case I have is slightly different.

We are using kue to manage human jobs. In this case, we have a queue organized around pieces of work identified by properties, e.g. [morning, food], [evening, entertainment]. Workers pull jobs from qualified queues, but if they abandon this work, the job should be returned to the related queue on expiry.

What would be the recommended usage approach for the above scenario?

Start by reviewing Kue's TTL expiry and job requeue behavior, then consult the related issues referenced in the report. The issue does not name a file or test, and completion is not defined beyond identifying a recommended approach for reinserting expired human-work jobs.
