Recycle bin on separate table

Maybe it is just me being lazy (probably is), but I do not prune my recycle bin and noticed that I have nearly half a million messages in there. And it has occurred to me that I am backing them up - when they are not that important. I'd like to keep them - but if I lose them, it doesn't mean much.

So my suggestion is probably more for large boards, but it would be nice if the recycle bin was on a separate table - this way it could easily be excluded on scripted backups.

Like I say - its not that important, but might reduce backup times for larger boards.


*edit - I realise that this may upset the search facility - however on large boards we are likely to  be using sphinx, and so falling back to the standard smf search for recycle might be an option.
