Hi Alan,

That is most certainly in the docs and not only a source comment:
http://doc.akka.io/api/akka/2.4/akka/pattern/Backoff$.html#onFailure(childProps:akka.actor.Props,childName:String,minBackoff:scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration,maxBackoff:scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration,randomFactor:Double):akka.pattern.BackoffOptions

What it says is, do not use this factory method for persistent actors but
instead the Backoff.onStop factory method, not that the back off supervisor
cannot be used with persistent actors.
