Thats why I said its a waste of time for test installations and should be
optional and enabled by default :)
If I don't care if my test database works after a crash or not I don't need
a backup.
Just imagine you play around with loading/unloading large databases with
repm and just want to know if it works and your client software works and
not  actually doing it in a productive scenario.
Beeing forced to do a backup in these scenarios after each and every load is
annoying and takes alot of time for nothing.
