Send one small followup to fixup outdated docstrings for maintenance 
types [0] to be considered when applying this series.

One thing I'm still questioning is if we should rework the active 
operations a bit more, allowing for processes to only serialize and 
update the respective part of their PID when writing the json file and 
maybe encode the running version of the PBS process within that. This 
could then potentially be used to detect a min running version
  Of course this will require a breaking change at some point, since all 
older process version will overwrite the file with their currently known 
serialization format.
