Hey,

so as cool as this program is becoming, what worries me a little is how to handle a corrupted / destroyed / broken databasus instance. The docs only say that each backup is encrypted with a unique key, but even if I have the /databasus-data/secrey.key, I'm not sure how to manually download a backup from e.g. s3 and restore it in case of an emergency (read: databasus is lost, but I still need to recover another database from backup).

What's the plan for backing up databasus and being able to restore even if my current instance of databasus is lost?
