Unfortunately it proves that way you have chosen doesn't match best practices for creating UI.
Besides, it makes impossible to execute backup once again with the same or slightly changed backup settings (what I already prooved).
Also I didn't ask form hide anything. I'm asking to leave it without changes. Instead of changing meanin of backup button, just pop up some modal requester with the information. 2 birds with one rock.
