>
> When making a snapshot, the new directory is created with a timestamp and,
> optionally, a user-supplied tag. For the sake of automated snapshot-creating
> tools, it would be helpful to know unequivocally what the new snapshot
> directory was named (otherwise, the tool must search for a directory similar
> what it expects the name to be, which could be both error-prone and maybe
> susceptible to attack).
> Recommend making takeSnapshot and takeAllSnapshot return a string, which is
> the base component of the new snapshot's directory name.
