We could instrument Android's WorkManager (and maybe other schedulers like AlarmManager or JobDispatcher) and power our Queues module.

Potential things we could capture:

Android Studio's Jobs/Task inspector for inspiration: Google Chrome 2024-07-15 22 04 41

Let's investigate first:

If/how we can instrument the different work schedulers
How the queues module works under the hood and if the data model would the mobile use case (there's one queue per user vs. one queue per server instance)

Since sentry's concept of queues doesn't match WorkManager very well, we could have breadcrumbs and Events (e.g. for failed jobs) as well.
