This wouldn't be very secure unless you made some file name randomizer that always recreates the backup file with a different, random name so that no one can know its name unless they had direct rights to the file, which would help prevent people from messing with it that aren't supposed to. It would take some complex systems but I suppose it would be possible to mimic something like this.

This is all wrong (though logical) until Stefan allows .db files to be modified by script.
