I think your patch will at least help my setup. I did not intend to make
so many user only files, it was just a result of the legacy data dump.
The warning will at least let me know something is not quite right.
One suggestion - make sure there is a way to handle large numbers or
switch to a summary/count if the details are over a few lines. I had
about 1400 files which were not backed up. I would hate to watch that
many files scroll by in a single screen display.
I hope I was able to help fix this.
Have a good weekend.
