Just noticed this really useful GUI tool that was not around a year ago or so when I switched my Home folder partition to Btrfs. It seems to cover all the generally used type of Btrfs features you'd use including running and monitoring scrubs or balance operations, and even viewing and browsing snapshots, with options to restore individual files.

It looks like Windows's shadow copy assistant thing, except actually useful. Nice find! Thanks for sharing!
