      I think it would make more sense to have a checkbox instead of a drop down menu in the backup / restore config menu so that when you restore a config to a different device you can select multiple items to restore at once without restoring everything or having to go back 20 times to restore different configs sections don't you think ?

        @tlex This is a great idea and indeed would have saved some time on restores to dissimilar hardware in the past.

          Huh, now that someone mentions it... YES. That would definetly save some time with setting up a restore or similar box without having to edit the complete config.xml to do a full restore. Great idea!
