Make it possible to choose what apps to back up and restore

[jospoortvliet]

The reason to back up the database tables is that many apps store data there - data you might want to restore some day.

But you rarely want all data back - eg I'd like to keep my favorites and share data but want to restore my notes from last week. It would be nice if I could pick what apps/tables to back-up and what to restore (separately!)

This is probably hairy - you need to identify what app a table belongs to, not sure how easy that is...

Currently everything will be backed up and you can choose what tables should be restored, because I exactly wanted what you mentioned above. But I dunno if it's possible to just choose an app to restore the tables from. I had the same idea, but currently an app decides for itself what tables it uses...

To just restore data from a certain user would be even more awesome but I guess also very hard to implement...
