tumblr-backup.py does not appear to backup post comments (called "notes" by Tumblr), including both text comments, reblogging (with or without comments) or post likes. Any chance these could be added?

The Tumblr API does provide info about notes, so it's possible. If @bbolli is busy I could take a shake at it next week after this university quarter ends, I've been working with the Tumblr API a lot so I could make a proof of concept to try.

[I'm not deleting this post just for legacy reasons, but ignore it -- the latest version of tumblr_backup.py DOES get inline images-- I had an old version]

Awesome.. then I'll put in a request to grab inline images just to keep you busy ;)

is a possible start, but only works after the download is complete.
