[Borgbackup] setting default compression

Hi,

I discovered borg a day or so ago and it seems really great; thanks for
a very, very, nice piece of software.

Are there any plans to add something like, say, BORG_COMPRESSION, to set
default compression?

I expect most of my use of borg will be scripted, but the command line
is so easy compared to duplicity, that I am luxuriating in the ability
to do ad hoc backups of "just this directory" whenever I want to, and it
would be nice not to have to remember to add '-C ...' each time.

(Yes I could alias the whole command, and I probably will, but thought
I'd ask anyway.)

regards
sitaram
