Ability to store and restore settings externally from a LinkStation

This is something I've been missing from the day one which was sometime about 5 years ago with my first HD-HLAN. This kind of an option is just crucial in all AirStations and it would be priceless in LinkStations too.

From the subject line you can tell English is not my native tongue.  I meant that I'd like to have an option to save settings that work for the future. These settings would be great to have around to be restored later, for example after an firmware upgrade or a NAS reset. Of course you can always print out each of the pages from the GUI but it is not very handy. AirStations do have this save/restore -option.

This has already been implemented on the TS-III using NS-SHIFT

Currently if I have 100 users I have to create 100 shared folders and set the access rights for them all manually. This is a mess. I'd like to create one share called 'users' or 'home' and let users create their own subfolders and set their own permissions on them depending on who they want to share data with.
