> Minor changes to run transitions code:
> - fail transition if cannot connect to one of the clients

This change introduced a problem:
1) a run is happily taking data
2) a frontend crashes
3) the web interface cannot stop the run (cannot contact the crashed frontend)
until  it is removed by the timeout (10-60 seconds?).

I am now considering allowing the run to end even if some clients cannot be
contacted. The begin, pause and resume transitions would continue to fail if
clients cannot be contacted.

K.O.
