True, backup gives you most of the data, but it doesn't give you the bayes stats like --dump data does. This can be useful for folks who are interested in that sort of thing, see below. > I do not contest at all ressource improvement. it is just a pity to break > control commands. Is there any plan to (re)add this functionnality (regex > search) in a future release ? The conversion to binary, fixed length token keys was a HUGE win in performance. A large effort was made to add the option (for those who didn't care about performance) to store the raw token value in the database (sorry I don't have the bug number in front of me). The sum total of that work was that adding even the option of storing the raw token value was a performance hit and when posed to the user community there was very little call for this. However, as a sort of compromise for any future requests for this sort of data several hooks where added to the Plugin API that allow you to get at the raw token data. This allows you to create a plugin to fetch this data. The plan, in some future version is to expand the Plugin API to allow for something to happen in the dump (or better named) method. This is on the todo list for some future version of SA, so I'm closing this bug as invalid.
