Oliver,
I have not used any of the GUI tools either.
Personally I run rdiff-backup on a few different fileservers. It
would be nice to give the users a HTTP interface to the backups, etc.
So if you do document whats out there, please organize them by user
interface: X / KDE / HTTP / Windows native / etc.
Thanks
Greg
