This could also be done by running your backupcatalog job at a higher
(lower ;-) priority so it would be queued, but only started once all
your regular prio jobs have finished.
So you could assign your normal backups prio 10 and the catalog backup
prio 100 or thereabouts and set "allow mix priority jobs" to "False"
(from memory).
Also, make sure to use a decent backup tool if you're using mysql once
your catalog grows beyond a certain size, like percona xtrabackup or
similar.
