Review Comment:
Interesting... sounds like yet another bug 😄 I'm going to need to read more
of the code to understand what is happening. But I believe we _should_ be able
to take incremental backups of individual tables — the API seems to allow for
it, and it's a clearly useful feature when the value proposition of the entire
incremental backup system is to increase the granularity of backup operations
