= This is why there's a naming convention for databases
= (<databasename>-<creator id>).

But creator ID's only have to be case-sensitive unique. So you could have
two databases in your backup folder:

        SMSdb-SmsA
        smsDB-smsa

Of course, Mac OS and Windows won't be able to store these in the same
directory. My suggestion is to store these in separate directories:

        SmsA - 536D7341
                SMSdb-SmsA
        smsa - 736D7361
                smsDB-smsa

Applications would have to avoid creating multiple databases with the same
case-insensitive name, but they wouldn't have to worry about other
applications' databases conflicting with theirs. This would also eliminate
the need to append the creator ID to database names.
