How should a backup be done and named?
a) backup to *.bak
b) use versioning - e.g. *.bak_01, *.bak_02
b.1) with max versions
c) use timestamping - e.g. *.bak_20050101
c.1) but not more than 20 backups

Just an example. What I did was give the WhimFile instance methods to cover these cases so that extending classes could implement their own policy. I didn't intend to clutter my example with these issues! I should be more careful.
