[suggestion] allow backup into subdirectory of the minecraft instance

How do you propose that a user in such a situation would perform backup restores?

[phit]

ls | grep -v backups/ | xargs rm -R then copy backup to folder? or for just ftp access delete everything besides backup folder by hand then drag the backup to the server dir

same way those people do it with other backup plugins/mods

not that it's a nice way but it works

somehow like phit said...

actually if a region file is corrupted i would have to download a 1gb zip file with the whole world, unzip it local and upload the file after that.

with BTFU i could just grab the right region file from the backup and copy it over, download shouldnt even be needed.

the feature was probably added because its stupid to backup on the same harddisk, but i dont have any choice in that case.
