It would be convenient to have a single entry point into QC that processes all jobs, then exits (i.e. a non-daemon based worker). Something resembling:
$ QC_EXIT_ON_COMPLETION=true rake qc:work
or perhaps a new rake task all together?
The use case here is to reduce the need to have a long-lived daemon to keep alive for systems with low numbers of jobs, or jobs that can wait for a cron-based process to spawn and work on them. On Heroku this would allow users to have an hourly task with Scheduler to process the queue instead of a whole worker dyno.
