Yes, somewhat. I mean, that's basically like waiting for JobRemoved,
as the instant where the Job property goes to (0, '/') is also the
instant where JobRemoved is sent out. Normally, one would wait for
JobRemoved though, not just PropertiesChanged, as the JobRemoved
message contains info if the job actually succeeeded or not.
