> 3) opens an interactive terminal to look inside 4) publish to a registry once you exit the terminal

It seems like it would be good to be able to prevent the pipeline from publishing the image, if the inspection with 'terminal' shows there's something wrong (with e.g. 'exit 1'). I looked a little bit into the help system, and it doesn't seem that there's a way from inside the 'terminal' function to signal that the pipeline should stop. Semantics like bash's "set -e -o pipefail" might help here.

with-exec lets you specify that you want a command to succeed with e.g.

  container | from alpine | with-exec --expect SUCCESS /bin/false | publish ...
If you try that, the pipeline will stop before publishing the image.

Huh, you're right, I would expect `exit 1` in the terminal to abort the rest of the pipeline.

By the way, in your example: `--expect SUCCESS` is the default behavior of with-exec, so you can simplify your pipeline to:

  container | from alpine | with-exec /bin/false | publish ...
Thank you! Would you be willing to open an issue on our github repo? If not I will take care of it.
