One more interesting finding...

I tried a new restore with "the most recent backup". The restore
successfully used a Base job that was done on 22.Mar.2015 - the weird
bit here is that I had "File Retention = 14 days" before, so I actually
expected the restore to miss the Base job files again.

It seems that job's files are checked for pruning within the same job at
the same level?
