Suggestion for separated backups timestamps.

[BDisp]

Currently when "Create new separated backups", "Use absolute paths" and "Always create top parent folder" are enabled, on a task that full backup a disk drive it create the correct timestamps (Image 1)

If the task only have some folders and files to backup currently it create the timestamps on the folders and files (Image 2)

My suggestion is to only create the timestamps for the root folder as "Image 3" and not in the subfolders.

Another trap is if the user disable "Use absolute paths" and has "Full copies to keep" more than one, if the user choose folders with the same name on different locations, the latest will overwrite the others, make the user losing data in case he needs to restore.

Yes, that is only logical.

Maybe is better not allowing this situation or at least advice the user for the risk, I think.
Will you considere my suggestion?
By the way how can I get notified by email when a reply posted on a topic where I also replied? Thanks.
