strftime style time substitutions

It would be nice if the webmin core could translate strftime paths and delete old ones after X days.

For instance if I am backing up databases daily or hourly I would like to be able to save that to a strftime path --> /backups/%m-%d-%Y/ or /backups/%T/

This should apply globally for any webmin module but certainly for MySQL and PostgreSQL

So what you want is the ability to delete old backups made using the MySQL and PostgreSQL modules, just like Virtualmin and Cloudmin support already?

Client doesn't use VM, just webmin which why I asked.

Ok, sounds reasonable ... I'll add this to my TODO list.

Thanks... I know its rare that people just use webmin these days but strftime file paths still come in handy when you need certain backups made.
