74+ Checks are made on the files to be backed up (are they all readable,
75  do all paths specified in the backup set exist?)
76+ Replaced the cdrecord shell command with nautilusburn,
77  and gave it a shiny new interface to match.
78+ It'll actually burn CDs now - I accidentally left the cdrecord
79  '-dummy' flag turned on in 0.2 ;)
