While I agree with this, I think it is important to note that there is
nothing wrong with how bacula currently does restores. I do think this
discussion goes to show that there are many ways a person might want to
restore files and they might all be reasonable for their own reasons.
What I tried to do with my patch is give bacula a hook to allow anyone
to specify files to be restored on a volume/file level. Now anyone who
comes up with any scheme (reasonable or not) to restore files, can
implement it and still have bacula perform the restore.
