Bug#370359: option to preserve every nth backup older than a certain age

Package: rdiff-backup Version: 1.1.5-1 Severity: wishlist Maybe rdiff-backup could get an option so that it would skip deleting certain backups, even if they're too old. My theory is that I'd like to keep daily backups for the last 60 days, but anything older than that should be a monthly backup.
