Public bug reported:

Several people have been asking for a way to sync GTG which doesn't use 
external services for privacy reasons.
Couchdb is a viable solution, but non using ubuntu-one to sync couchdb is not 
simple.
Localfile is not a solution because it doesn't check that if the file has 
changed. (maybe we should state that)
Moreover, you have to merge localfiles to sync to task sets, which is not a 
nice thing

A solution could be a directory backend, where each file is a task. It's
better for syncing and to keep in a code revision system (like bzr).

Marking this as "love" as it's not difficult to do (it just has to go
along the RTM backend lines), and need the developer to understand only
the Backend class (not all GTG). Ask me if you're interested.
