(Louis, sorry for the delay in replying to this)

What do other users think? Straw poll, should "bbackupctl sync" or 
"force-sync" force all files to be backed up, ignoring the MinimumFileAge 
and MaxUploadWait, or should it continue to behave as at present, 
honouring those limits?

In the latter case, who wants a new bbackupctl command to override that 
behaviour?

Cheers, Chris.
