      The ability to set a size limit for files stored in the user private backup area would be extremely helpful. We have a number of users who create course backups and then forget about them that take up storage space on the server. Implementing a configurable quota similar to the private files area with a message would help remind users to keep that area clean and would allow site admins to reduce the amount of drive space used unnecessarily.
