Bug Description

There's should be an option to include system critical files on backup such as:
- fstab, device.map, mtab, menu.lst, and xorg.conf
- GRUB configuration

and skip averything else. Currently I can only select folders but no individual files.

deja-dup 11.1-0ubuntu0karmic1

Essentially, déjà dup should be configured in Ubuntu to run as root, so that one can backup /etc and all home directories, not only the user's directory.
