Maybe for every such non-idempotent action I can make the service task async to 
force a savepoint? Actually I'm not even sure if it would force a savepoint 
since a parallel branch might start executing when this branch blocks. 

Just looking for best practices or recommendations for these crash/recovery 
scenarios.. any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
