S.B. suggests that backup generations have an optional description.
> 2. Named generations -- There are certain generations that are more
> important than others. Some are automatically created by Obnam itself,
> some are routinely scheduled, and some were explicitly created. For
> example, I always run Obam immediately before traveling with my laptop
> in case it gets stolen or broken. The same goes for backups before
> major system upgrades. It would be nice to have something
> approximately analogous to the Windows "restore point" functionality,

> created system checkpoints. But if the user explicitly creates a new

> or "before upgrading OS" or whatever. Similarly, the automatic backup
> script could be programmed to label it as "cron backup".
