I'm curious how often you (or anybody) sees this request.

FWIW there are 3 issues related to per-list backups.  It's a plausible
feature (lots of potential applications), so I just added the below to
Mailman's 2026 GSoC page, so maybe we'll get an intern to do it.

== Per-list backup ==
In Mailman 2, the list configurations were stored in list-specific
structures as Python ''pickles''.  Backup of a single list was just a
matter of copying the pickle file.  Currently there is no way to
extract and restore the configuration and membership of a single list
from a Mailman 3 installation.  This project would involve picking a
format such as a Python pickle or a JSON object, extracting the
list-specific data from the backing database, and storing it to a
file, as well as reversing the process.
