Actually with the ability to create rules for expiration/transfer to and from Glacier... I've no longer any interest in direct Glacier support.

It makes sense for my use-case to keep data within the previous 3 months on S3 and have rules to auto-transfer to Glacier beyond that point. If a restore to a previous time is required, I guess I'd have to manually select the files to transfer/restore to S3, but this is something I'm willing to do. Maybe duplicity can detect which files have been moved to Glacier and initiate a transfer request using the S3 API? Not sure if it works that way but maybe its worth looking into.
