As long as it is a onesy/twosy type operation, going to tape does not incur
a large performance penalty, so restores of the 'Last Version' would not in
my opinion, as it relates to this feature, be that critical.

This feature would be more geared toward operations that typically require a
lot of tape mounts and a lot of tape locates.  (File system restores /
generate backupsets).

James Thompson

Yes, but one thing to keep in mind is that most people would also want to
keep the "Last Version" also, even if it is inactive.  The reason
is that if someone deletes a file, the next day it would be inactive,
but those are files that are often requested for restore.
