Hi Kristen

A little more TM feedback.

Recently an external drive failed and I has to restore it from a  
SuperDuper clone I had.

I had hoped that TM could carry on as before backing up the new drive  
as if nothing had happened, but it insisted on making a whole new  
backup because the drive uuid had changed.  I eventually did find a  
way around this by changing the uuid of the old TM backup but it was  
very complicated and not for the feint of heart.

Hopefully some improvement can be made in that area.
