Can I have Celery reenqueue a task?

I'm using a Celery task queue to process web requests asynchronously. If I wanted to prevent workers from processing the same kind of task too often, is it possible for a worker to reenqueue a task? It's certainly possible to have a worker sleep on a task, but I don't want to tie up workers sleeping on tasks. Any thoughts?

My answer almost certainly lies in ETA/Countdown options: http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/master/userguide/calling.html#eta-and-countdown How can I defer the execution of Celery tasks?

I hadn't considered putting the wait logic on the task-generator side. I'll play with this a bit.
