#11 Remember root password
I use the "Run as Root" option, as I am backing up a server where no other single user has access to all the files that need to be backed up. Every time it runs the backup, it prompts me for the root password. Which means that I have to remember to get up from my desk, walk over to the server and enter this every afternoon. It would be nice if it could save the root password instead.
This is a must! I also want to backup as root to copy all the files without problem but I can't schedule backups because it doesn't make sense if I have to introduce the password everytime.
