Easy Backup Function
NZBGet and NZBDrone both have easy to to Backup feature that just requires you download a file. It would be nice to be able to do the same with Mylar.

Something that was just added a few commits ago :
If you're asking about a backup switch for the mylar.db / config.ini - that already exists by enabling the '-b' option via command line on startup (it will backup both files on startup, within a /backup directory located within the root of mylar and keep the most recent 2 copies of each).

Re: Easy Backup Function
Sorry, I'll provide a little more detail.
Here's a screenshot of NZBDrone's backup function: http://i.imgur.com/Ox0qYF3.jpg
All you have to do is download the most recent file and you've got a full backup of all your settings/db.
This makes it very easy to backup locally and to anywhere else that has access to the web interface.
NZBGet's is even better with a restore function right there with it: http://i.imgur.com/hK8DNsC.jpg
My chief concern is a hard drive or system failure, so backing up onto the same system doesn't really cover my concerns.
Thanks for the great application!
