I'll throw this idea out at the same time in case some clever soul can
figure out how to work them together:

It would be nice to be able to specify that certain hosts should not be
backed up at the same time. For instance, if I have 30 virtual machines all
served from the same NAS, only one of them should be backed up at a time. By
the same token, there may be hosts which have low bandwidth (such as if
they're offsite) and several may be backed up simultaneously with no
problems. Perhaps this could be done via groups.
