Yes please. Perhaps --no-logs should be the default instead? So 'juju
create-backup' excludes logs by default, with an option such as
'--with-logs' or '--include-logs' for those wanting to also back up
logs.

Reducing the time it takes to perform Juju controller backups would
also be super useful to IS since we do this before performing any juju
upgrades (we run quite a lot of controllers and try to be as
up-to-date as possible).
