Lee Crossley commented on CB-471:
---------------------------------
Essentially, we should be able to specify if a file is to be backed up or not
(possibly when calling window.requestFileSystem). In my workaround, I'm
creating a directory, setting the attribute on it and saving files I don't want
backed up in there.
There is also a problem with the way you back up web sqlite databases - is also
backed up on iCloud. If non-critical data is stored in there this is incorrect
and apps will be rejected. This should be configurable.

> According to the developer documentation on Apple's website:
> https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#qa/qa1719/_index.html
> Starting in iOS 5.0.1 a new "do not back up" file attribute has been
> introduced allowing developers to clearly specify which files should be
> backed up. (com.apple.MobileBackup)
> Persistance is easily achievable (LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT) but there seems
> to be no way of specifying if a saved file is not backed up to the iCloud or
> not.
> Apps may be rejected by Apple (depending on the data) if the "do not back up"
> file attribute is not set.
