When a user has requested a stemma and Stemweb returns an error asynchronously, Stemmaweb currently removes any record of the attempt, so that the user only sees that no stemma was ever delivered and might, in confusion, try again. This needs to be made more helpful to the user.
The obvious solution would be to avoid removing the stemweb_jobid flag until the user asks for the status.
