Quite a while ago, options were added to command line restores for date
sensitive operations - FROMDATE and TODATE.  Is there any time estimate when
these will be available on a Macintosh, which of course has no command line
interface?

I have customers with several large Mac servers - they are considering using a
combination of ADSM and local tape backup - ADSM for all of the day to day
stuff, and a tape backup for the emergency (full volume).  Our Network is not
robust enough to handle large volumes, and so can't meet their outage window
requirements.  They would like to use a local tape for a full volume restore,
and then use ADSM to restore what has changed since the last backup.
FROMDATE, as described in the command line descriptions, would appear to meet
the need, but since this is a Mac......
