If Yojimbo stored records as separate files and kept metadata and/or

backup those files that had changed instead of the entire xxxMB
sqllite file that Yojimbo uses now. I believe that would decrease the
risk of inconsistency as opposed to the case now, where Yojimbo could
write the the large database file while the backup is trying to copy it.

I'm sure Bare Bones has considered this option for Yojimbo. But I suspect there's greater complexity here than meets the eye. Perhaps there are tradeoffs having to do with record encryption or .Mac sync. Would we be willing to sacrifice those features for individual file storage?
