Moodle - change course backup location

 Exploring if we could change the "manual backup" location for courses, to put the backups in another directory rather than along with all the other files in moodledata/filedir, tried changing in Site Admin --> Courses --> Backups --> Automated backup setup -

But it looks like the path set there in backup_auto_destination seems to be valid only for automated backups. The manual backups initiated from the course are still saved in filedir. So, while taking backups of the entire server's moodledata directory, we are forced to take backups of backups.
