No - a Full backup is the only case where you only need a single JobId.

When I wrote 'automatically select all the dependent jobs', I meant that it
automatically selects all the jobs that are required in order to do a complete
backup.

Currently, in the case where you choose "Select backup for a client before a
specified time", you are choosing the most recent job before that time.
Bacula will calculate which other jobs need to be included in order for you
to get all your data back.

For example, I have:
JobId Level Date
1     Full  12/03/2009 10:00:00
2     Incr  13/03/2009 10:00:00
3     Incr  14/03/2009 10:00:00
4     Incr  15/03/2009 10:00:00

If I want to restore all the files that were backed up in JobId 3, I have to
enter some date between 14/03/2009 10:00:01 and 15/03/2009 09:59:59.
Bacula then automatically selects JobIds 1,2,3 and puts you in its tree
browsing mode.

I would like an option where I could just type in '3' and get the same
behaviour.
