Description

We'd like to re-write the Scheduler module.
Let's use this issue to discuss desired features (some additional opened issues should be merged into this one).

We'd like it to be "flexible/modular" as @dranasinghe once suggested: so that the user can define the jobs to run and the order in which to execute them. We'll have several recommended pre-configured schemes accessible using a simple keyword.

I'd like to merge the solvation attribute into the level of theory specified for each job type.

We need a final scheme that allows users to calculate the final energy using their own script (also suggested by @dranasinghe)

ARC devs: feel free to add comments

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Scheduler module and the related issues that this discussion proposes merging into it. Clarify the desired job ordering, recommended schemes, level-of-theory handling, and user-supplied final-energy script before implementation; done requires an agreed design and corresponding implementation scope.
