Scheduled backups & locked screen

[elaine.irvine]

I purchased SuperDuper this afternoon and successfully created a bootable backup alongside the existing time machine backups on an external hard drive. I then went to create an automated backup schedule only to discover that SuperDuper can't backup with a locked screen!?

I know I should have researched this more thoroughly before buying SuperDuper, however, does anyone know whether this functionality is forthcoming anytime soon??

I work in a busy laboratory and can't afford to leave the screen unlocked and would ideally like to schedule my backups during the evening after I have left work. If I had realised this wasn't possible I would not have purchased the software.
