This has probably come up before, but given the number of times this seems to 
happen, I would suggest that if Mnemosyne 2.0 still saves and backs up upon 
exiting, that it:

1)  Back up before closing the window/GUI
2)  Flush/fsync after backing up (and before window closes).

On python you can do (2) with os.fsync, although some OSes and filesystems may 
not support it.  This will at least help the people that close Mnemosyne and 
immediately rip out their USB key or whatever.

Chris: Are you closing Mnemosyne before you shut down your Mac? Not sure how
session management works on OS X, but it may not be shutting down Mnemosyne
cleanly. Since Mnemosyne 1.x only saves on a clean exit, this might cause
the problems you're seeing.
