Comment (by eschnett):

 We can change the names, but the state of a simulation is either "active"
 or "inactive", and if it is active, it is either "queued", "running", or
 "finished".

 "Cleanup" is a safe operation. It can be applied at all times, and does
 nothing if it can't be applied. If you look at a simulation that has not
 been cleaned up, then you are not guaranteed that the files are accessible
 -- this is also a bad idea. The only problem with cleanup is that the
 queuing system doesn't offer a hook where it is guaranteed to run, thus
 Simfactory has to run it manually after the fact.

 We should probably replace the "finished" by "presubmitted".
