Nice! It's definitely been one of the bigger holes.

I hope you'll also consider sequential tasks in a single jobfile. Without it it's kind of awkward because you have to be passing shell scripts around just to run a setup step before your actual workload.

We’ve also started to implement this with a new task dependencies feature in the latest release. Check out: https://www.hashicorp.com/resources/preview-of-nomad-0-11-ta...

There’s more work going on there to further improve the feature in upcoming releases.
