    Hi!
    I was just reading the new OS4 beta 3 features, and maybe this could be of interest for everyone (myself included) that still do not like how Apple treat savegames.

    Basically, you can backup those togheter with the iPhone backup, but if you want to temporarely delete one app to resync some days later, you're screwed (you loose progress).
    As far as I know, there is no method to keep your game-saves safe on your PC, to use it when you'll resync the app (deleted for space contraints or whatever).

    So I read that OS4 beta 3 finally activate data sharing...which is cool for a number of reasons but...what if EVERY DEV CONSIDER GAME SAVES LIKE DATA TO SHARE?
    Is it possible?

    1) I could drag out from iTunes my savegames and keep them safe somewhere else.
    2) I could drag in iTunes my savegames for apps I deleted and wanted to resync.

    Do you think is possible?

    I have many many big games on my iPhone already finished I do not want to delete just to not loose my pregressions, in the event of updates, etc...
