Description
Add an automatically generated backup of the database before installing. In the event that something goes wrong, it should be able to restore.

I'm not sure this is worthwhile for Plugin Manager to do. There are modules like http://drupal.org/project/backup_migrate and http://drupal.org/project/demo which do this already.
If this feature is added to Plugin Manager, it should probably be done via a dependency on one of those modules and then using a function in those modules to do the actual work.
