One should have the option to write a sys-backup directly on SD card or network location....

Usually Sailfishes' Backup-function will write the phone's settings backup file into the /.vault WHICH GETS OVERWRITTEN ON "FACTORY-RESET". So you have to move by PC from the .vault to your SD-card ... and backwards after reset install. This would great - I know, my usual comparison ;-) - as on the N900 , having the option of choosing at least the SD-card as a backup-location. I wouldn't mind having implemented options for other (network/cloud) locations as well ... Thanks !
