More visibility/control in error retry #165

Closed blowmage closed 5 years ago

blowmage commented 5 years ago

See the discussion in #150 for an example of the desired visibility/control.

As discussed in #172, we are considering delegating the retry and backoff calculations to a Retry object, and allowing users to provide their own object to have more control on errors and retry behavior. We would need to design a simple interface that was easily reproduced for users to create, if they chose not to simply configure the default Retry object.

@jbolinger Do you think this issue is satisfied by #172?
