Description

- Go to Diagnostics > Backup & Restore
- Notice option: "Skip RRD data [] Do not backup RRD data (NOTE: RRD Data can consume 4+ megabytes of config.xml space!)"

This option is enabled by default. ie some data will not be backed up by default.

Surely it is preferable to err on the side of backing up more data!? Especially when we're talking about on the order of 10 MB, which isn't that much, even for say a Raspberry Pi. Sure some people may have really constrained store space, so by all means keep this option, I'm just arguing that the default should be toggled.
