Resume interupted backup

I don't know if this is the right place to put this, but it would be really helpful to be able to resume a backup that was interrupted due to whatever reason. From time to time, a backup is interrupted, whether by power outage, Blu ray drive errors, bumped cables, whatever. It would be nice if MakeMKV would hash check files existing in the backup location and skip re-dumping them from disk if the hash is valid.

The program's author, Mike, has talked about a feature like that in the past.

I don't know when (if ever) such a feature will ship.

has this been implemented yet? My drive started shutting off regularly after a period of time (have tried a number of different power options), but a quick power cycle brings it back. It currently gets about 2/3 through a bluray and chokes. It would be great to just cycle it and have makemkv continue where it left off.
