Some of them are long-running jobs and should continue running even
during the rollout.  Eg. language-pack-export can take up to 8h and
Ubuntu team relies on it to complete when it's started: we can't have
continuous rollouts harm this expectation.  So far, it was only
troublesome on LP rollouts (i.e. once a month), but for that specific
reason we had no language pack exports happen on Wednesday.
