      I would like to request that the Backup/Restore Configuration menu item be moved from Diagnostics to System.  Doing a backup/restore is more of a general system function than it is a "diagnostic" item.  My two cents.

        +1 from me, though the arguments about what goes where in the menus have been had before and I think the end result is the devs put it where they want it since no one will be happy with every choice :-) In this case, I do agree and I think it's pretty clearcut. But…just my two cents :-)

          It's one of those classic bikeshed arguments… Everyone wants things somewhere else, but then again if you move something, people will also complain or can't find it (even if its new location is logical).

          In this case, inertia will probably win and things will stay where they are rather than shuffling around and surprising people.

            At the other side a change to a "better" place would break less than a "bad" place. So it could be fine to do the "right" thing.
