NOTE: I have updated the description of the issues to reflect remaining problems. In versions of Moodle prior to 2.6, the performance of the backup/restore pages was unacceptable, but this has been fixed by MDL-35674. In versions of Moodle prior to 2.4 there was no 'Select none' option. These problems no longer apply, leaving a much simpler remaining problem.
Moodle 1.9 had options to turn off activities by type (for example, if you didn't want to back up any forums, you could turn off forums throughout the course). These options are not present in Moodle 2.
When courses have a large number of activities (e.g. 1,000), it can be tedious to scroll through the list spotting all the forums and turning them off.
I propose we should add back a way to select/deselect activities by type during backup.
