I noticed that when I deleted the backups from a site they were still in the db (& show in the UI) even after a new verify of the platform and site. I think it would be nice to have a feature to manage the backups of a site; like a backups tab which shows all backups for a site and you can then select restore or delete them as needed. Im sure this has already been discussed but Mig5 and I were talking about it and he suggested a feature request was in order.

On IRC .. mig5 said we actually have a function hosting_site_delete_backup($bid)
so it would seem some prep has been made for this.

Cheers!

That would be neat. It's also a requirement for #422966: automated backups (and backups garbage collection) (although the UI side of this isn't).

Working patches for review, probably too crude in its current form.

This is genius. Will review when I get chance to.

This is working, and does exactly what is required. This will provide a great basis for deleting backups. More advanced scheduled deleting can just leverage this command to remove the backup.
