When backing up the database, can we include an option to automatically switch on the forum once the backup is complete?

On some forums it takes hours to make a backup, and usually the best time to do it is at night. Of course there's no point in waiting through the night just to switch the forum on when this could be done automatically, right?

In addition to an "auto switch-on" button which would bring the forum back to life after a backup is complete, here are a few others...

- in the Admin CP where you can back up the database, why not put check-boxes instead of radio buttons so that several tables can be selected simultaneously?

- for big tables (like w3t_posts for instance) can you include a % indicator showing the progress of the backup?
