Adding nbackup -F to services is technically trivial.
The main reason it was not done are usage patterns. -F switch is needed 
in 2 cases:
- After restoring backup of database using non-nbackup tools (i.e. 
someone does: alter database begin backup; copies db-file using some 
non-firebird tools; alter database end backup) and after is wants to 
restore that copy. But this anyway requires access to server console, 
i.e. command line nbackup can be used.
- To activate database after loosing for some delta-file which should be 
normally merged. This is emergency case (all transactions stored in 
delta file will be lost), and I do not want to make it possible to run 
it remotely.
