This should be updated in a future firmware update. For now you can update it via SSH.
Since i am lacking in ssh genuineness what are the exact command? That would really be helpful.

*Backup jobs can be directed to specific folders within shares but the option is not presented to you easily, you will have to manually inset the path by editing the job after it has been created, the browsing option is not working (take care to sett it properly before making a sync job, deleted an entire 2gb disk by accident because of this).
Yes you need to set the path correctly. No important data should be entrusted to a single device. If unsure as to what paths you should use experiment with test shares and/or ask for help here.
Yes i noticed through trial and error, with the error part pronounced. Took me a few days of scanning the drive to find appropriate recovery software that was able to recover my ext3 partition and lost files.

It should be possible to edit the config via SSH. I haven't experimented with this though. A sqlite3 database might need editing too for the change to stick and survive a reboot.
Sounds great but also above my abilities unfortunately.
