a researcher may want to take a snapshot of a db at a certain time to preserve the data in whatever state it is in for reference later during a publication. Even if it's slightly wrong, it's useful for reproducibility.
the library should provide an archive command, which allows the user the ability to extract :all: tables from a study and save them in a zip file. The user will have to assume responsibility for storing this file in an appropriate location, and we should warn them as such and ask them to confirm before downloading.
