I'm getting very frustrated about having to re-invent the wheel to
reproduce the functionality of Storage Lifecycle Policies for my
Synthetic Full backups.

For those not aware, Synthetic backup images for some dumb reason that
hasn't been explained to me cannot be managed by an SLP and you will get
dataloss if you backup to an SLP and expect it to execute the policy.
The backup will go to the Backup destination, but that is it. No
duplications.

I am working on some scripts to re-produce the functionality of SLP
since Vault is not adequate as I have hierarchical duplications that are
not possible with a vault job. It is going to take a little time to get
right, and I can't help but think this must have been done before.
