This is very broad and may have to be split into multiple issues.

Some initial thoughts:

What should the client-facing interface be? A recover restart?
Problems with right parentheses seem to be the most common obstacle for recovery.
Do we need dedicated condition sub-classes? Dedicated result objects?
