Please consider my humble request for a "Restore From Backup" feature in the not-so-distant future. The existing backup utility is wonderful, painless, a treasure to behold.

I'm in the process of changing hosts, and the telnet requirements have me running around the house for aspirin, beer and Jagermeister between emails to the hosting provider I'm trying to move into.

I'm a normal guy hopping from one shared hosting provider to another, light on the programming savvy. I don't have ROOT access, and had to jump through hoops to get Telnet access.

I've read the other threads explaining this would be a major undertaking, call it an add-on and charge $35 bucks if necessary.

Thank you :)

I believe it wasn't done before because you can't get into the control panel without a database, so you wouldn't be able to restore one.

I'm sure we'll sort something out at some point though :)
