In my case, these would get run Sunday night, and so both would
contain little beyond the log files that have changed.  I'd rather not
bother saving these twice, and could certainly do without the three
near-identical copies of the catalog backup.  In addition to the waste
of tape, this creates a bunch of job entries that I don't care about.

That's a good reason to leave the default action as is, although in my
situation I'd still like to be able to override it.
