In no particular order.. (mainly for my reference)


reporting to console in attended mode
email when end of tape in unattended mode
call external program for changing tapes
bad block marking "Forrest Gump <a.einstein@unforgettable.com>"
option to erase log file after operation "Forrest Gump <a.einstein@unforgettable.com>"
don't try to verify excluded files
what happens with unattended backups and full tapes?
auto verify after backup
mail receipient a paramater
probelm with status screen if dir size off
Unattended verify/mkinfo "Ingmar Greiser" <I.Greiser@raptor.in-berlin.de>
fix archive diff option
trim log file during backup not at end (deas@rrz.uni-hamburg.de (Andreas Steffan))
don't update file access times
keyboard accelerators
in restore, print tape that a file is one
don't use $HOME but ~ in preferences
taper --file-set=xxx (Alan Shutko ats@hubert.wustl.edu)

support sparse files
add mouse support
backup set names problem (Gary Ward, garyw@netcom.com)
regex selection/unselection (Dave Lane, root@stan.lincoln.ac.nz)

NEW FORMAT:

write a special record at end of each volume
checksum stored at end of file so file only read once
volume details should have a field to say include or exclude selection

INFO
file magic number
name_len should be 16 bit
change off_t/dev/mode/time/uid/gid to machine independent formats
file sizes etc.. should all be 64 bit to stop 4Gb limit
need some way of identifying hard links
