Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It seems like useful stuff out-of-the-box, 
but I figured some concensus wouldn't hurt before I start comitting things 
or (even worse) building lots of stuff on top of it.

backup-vfs doesn't have any non-standard dependencies, although install-vfs 
depends on File::MimeInfo::Magic which isn't stock on most Linux distros 
I've used. There might be a better alternative module... I'll have a look.
