@RealOrangeOne I'm not sure if it's a good idea to reuse DBTaskResult rows; maybe we should be creating new rows instead. What do you think?

For my use case (processing a bunch of documents), I find it useful to be able to retry failed tasks, until there are none left, fixing errors in the process. If we were to create new rows, then I'd have to stop the queue, retry the tasks, delete the old tasks, and then restart the queue.

Perhaps "Reenqueue" which updates the task, and a "Duplicate" which duplicates.

Then we shall have both! I've updated the PR as you suggest, with a small test to make sure that duplicate tasks actually work.

I found it super useful to be able to delete and to reschedule tasks through the Django Admin.
Update – this PR now adds two admin actions:
statusof the selected tasks toNEW, so they will be executed again.NEW, with no result or started/finished timestamps.
