Analyzing dump files
I'm thinking that a .dmp file analyzer would be a great tool. Probably implement it as a command on the Base capability, so it could be run from anywhere.
A first draft should address those security concerns I've been blogging about by listing all the directories where the files reside that are modified by the dump file.
Beyond that, pleanty of room for extra features. Counts of the number of files that are changed in each directory would be a great second draft.
Of course, it should list all the (classifier) information in the (somewhat obscured) dump header. The idea of course is to give the administrator a good idea of what a particular dump file will do to the database. Right now, you gotta just guess based on the file name (or try to look at the strange content).
