(Get the code!)
Yes please, this is a big problem for me as well.
I have a shared NAS in the office with other collegues. deja-dup fills the disk with my backups, which I don't want.
This also applies for local backups on a folder in another partition, if such partition is also used for other tasks.
The UI would be very unobtrusive: in the "Schedule" tab one could add a simple entry by default like this:
(o) Use all the available disk space for the backup folder.
( ) Use up to [50] GB for the backup folder
The text on the bottom could update dynamically depending on the choice, i.e. when the bottom is selected:
Old backups will be kept for at least a month or until the backup folder exceeds 50GB of disk space.
