It would be nice if one could cancel/stop a running backup/sync process via the system tray menus.

Yes, I agree. I have just postponed it because I wanted to do some research first on potential problems with corrupt files as a result of brutally killing the rsync or bup process. Perhaps there even is a signal to send that would more gently ask the process to exit asap... Yep, just need some research... Anybody who knows more about this is welcome to comment!
