I have noticed this on my first BackupPC setup too. Why is rsync run 
from host via ssh, and doesn't use rsync's native ssh capability?

Also it would be nice to change user used on host with some variable (I 
know I can define it, I mean accesible from web interface) There could 
be reasons, why ssh to root is not allowed.
