That would be a > backup! :) Actually this is one reason I'm leaning toward using the word package. At some point someone will write a simple script that will zip up and save an entire field and want to call that plugin "backup". So I'd like to reserve that word for that plugin when it comes. Of course if I knew how to do it, we could move it right into the core. It would be nice to do a daily backup or something... > I like the idea of a real backup action and a real package action. I think I'm with you on this. Does anyone care to siggest the best way to backup a complete field across multiple OS's and servers, etc. > Idea: What about using the search function?

You can already do this. On my big sites, I go in and manually edit the search function in the backup action to limit the displayed pages and then check pages from there. We could perhaps rewrite the action to some kind of search interface to show all files, preselected... Good idea.
