Has any thought been given to handling backups similarly to *mg*, rather than 
sprinkling them all over the filesystem like *emacsen* do by default?

BACKUP FILES
     Backup files have a ‘~’ character appended to the file name and are 
created in the current working
     directory by default.  Whether to create backup files or not can be 
toggled with the make-backup-files
     command.  The backup file location can either be in the current working 
directory, or all backups can
     be moved to a ~/.mg.d directory where files retain their path name to 
retain uniqueness.  Use the
     backup-to-home-directory to alternate between these two locations.  
Further, if any application creates
     backup files in /tmp, these can be left with the leave-tmpdir-backups 
command.

qemacs does the first, does not do the second.

Thanks!
