Hi Seb,

I don't forsee adding partial results insertion both because

- it would add a good deal of complexity to the code to insert results
  part-way through a run

- the current behavior of only inserting results on a fully successful
  run is reasonable and is probably more obvious (at least to me) than
  inserting partial results

Best -- Eric
