incremental save about backup-all-mysql HOT 2 OPEN

Yes, this would be possible, of course. The reason why I didn't do this is the "unix idea of orthogonal tools": backup-all-mysql only does the dumps on a regular basis. A different tool (backuppc in my case) moves the backup files to a different media and does versioning. - With that in mind, it would not be a good idea to create a different filename for every backup.

If you really would like to implement such a filename scheme (as suggested by you), feel free to implement that and send a PR. But please keep an option to always get the same filename - just as it's currently done. - Maybe a configurable filename pattern with a default that's the current filename ("mysqldump.sql").
