Status in duplicity - Bandwidth Efficient Encrypted Backup: Fix Released

Bug description:
It would be nice if duplicity had a gio backend.  That way it could accept any 
gio-supported schema and wouldn't have to worry about a lot of common server 
types.  Or at least, gio-capable apps (like deja-dup) could pass them along.

In theory this means you could abandon the temperamental ssh and ftp backends 
(and webdav), but from my experience with your userbase, they would not want 
gio (and thus glib) to be used by default.

Since gio has its own set of schemas, it makes sense to trigger the gio backend 
not with a schema, but with a command line switch like --gio.  Then the gio 
backend would be forced on, regardless of schema.  The URL would then be passed 
on to the backend.

I'm partway through this work.  Let me know if you see any major problems with 
the idea before I finish it!  :)
