i would like to have this feature which will be very
useful for me - ability to schedule backup not to
specific date and time but to succesfull end of application

my problem is that my device is T5. sometimes when i
work on it it crashes and after reset some databases
are missing, usually ones i had opened when reset happened

so with this feature nvbackup would wait for
sysNotifyAppQuittingEvent and when it will learn that
application which is quitting is one it should monitor
it would backup all touched databases with its creator.
that should be fast enough and it would make
application on this device most reliable

what do you think about it?

    What if these databases are corrupted?

    nvbackup places every backup to separate directory so i don't think this would be problem. worst case that may happen is that last backup won't be usable, but pre-last will be ok.

    I personally would like to have a "backup on device power-off"! Somthing like BackupBuddy does...
