The only time I can think of where one would want to modify results after a
job is complete is if there was a problem in the build and it was fixed
manually. I have seen this a number of times when something was broken in
a build job and a fix was delivered. Instead of starting a whole new job,
the portion of the build that failed was rebuilt manually, status updated
and the rest of the original job is continued on.
I'm not sure if that would count as still being an active job or not, but
it is a somewhat typical use case.
