I would like to see a backup function that covers installed plugins and
there settings as well as any settings that have been configured in the
LMS. I imagine something like a function "Save configuration" that would
generate a downloadable file and a function like "Restore from
configuration file" where I could upload such a file on a fresh install
and click "Restore" and in a few minutes, I will have a fully setup LMS
just as before. 
I do not mind if this is done as a separate plugin, but as a beginner,
searching through the file system and hoping that I have copied the
correct file to be later replaced has a hit and miss kind of success. 
When you say a backup through the OS I take it you mean an entire OS
image backup including all other installed software ? If so, yes, that
is one way to do it, but if i break something in LMS 
I would like to be able to restore LMS without a full OS restore.
