Followup; as noted in the June 15, 2015 IPP WG meeting, the Reprocess-Job operation is not being deprecated because it destroys accounting information (it doesn't, it creates a copy of the job) but because it only provides a subset of the capabilities of the Resubmit-Job operation, which allows specification of a new job ticket vs. just the job-hold-until for Reprocess-Job (so you can specify job-hold-until='indefinite' and then change the copied job ticket with Set-Job-Attributes - two step process...)
