what it sounds like you're asking for is a slightly more discoverable (i.e.
easier to figure out) front-end to the BackupPC_tarCreate command. 

No, it really hasn't been done; but then again, I don't consider:
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h <hostname> -n -1 -s / /| \
tar xv -C /var/tmp

to be that outrageous a thing to type. (tho admittedly it's not easily
'discoverable').
