Correct. This module specifically uses tools provided with MySQL for
managing administration (mysqladmin and mysqldump), and does not use DBI
at all.

However, there is no reason the basic concept could not be expanded such
that others could provide similar backup managers for other database
servers. Would Backup::MySQL be better, allowing for Backup::PostgreSQL,
etc. down the line? Or should such things stay under specific server
namespaces?
