On the other side: how does *making* the backup interact with the BE
and FE being running?  Since I gather I'm worng, and the default table
type is MyISAM, then --one-transaction is certainly not going to help
anyway; will there be interactions between making the dump and running
the BE?  Will backups be incoherent?  Could a running backup freeze up
the UI on the FE?  And what about Naomi?
