Agree. My thinking was if we're going to do the work of replacing
Timers, I would tend to reach for Quartz because it allows for more
advanced scheduling, meaning "update metadata everyday at 6am and 6pm
and if the job fails with a remote unavailable exception then
reschedule an hour later and email somebody". And that's overkill and
not really appropriate for things like replay detection.
