Searched the list archives -- this has been discussed before. The
condensed version of the problem is exactly what has been described
prior: how would Bacula know from which volume you wish to restore? I
don't have a good answer for that. I suspect Kern has thought about it a
lot, but last I checked he wasn't sure how this would be done either. A
lot of the work is done as a result of migration being possible now, but
there are still pieces left.

Also, check the current projects list; I believe this is on it
(therefore, no reason for a feature request).
