 * Hovering anywhere over a session in the Charge Points chart shows its tooltip again, listing all of the session's timestamps, as it did before the move to ECharts, without highlighting another charger's session; also, a chart's tooltip no longer shows a point from a neighbouring subplot [see `PR #2829 <https://www.github.com/FlexMeasures/flexmeasures/pull/2829>`_]
 
+* Handle each failed job of a worker on several queues, such as one started with ``flexmeasures jobs run-worker --queue "scheduling|forecasting"``, with the exception handler of the job's own queue, so a failed scheduling job shows its traceback in the worker log [see `PR #2850 <https://www.github.com/FlexMeasures/flexmeasures/pull/2850>`_]
