Let's see if I have this right.  You're suggesting the following:
The current pacman behavior is to store hashes for files in the
backup=() array.  You're suggesting that pacman automatically assume
all files in /etc/ be added as "backup" files, yes?

So, in order to do this, we would still have to have the backup=()
array for configs outside /etc that are important, but also some sort
of nobackup=() array for files in /etc/ to NOT be backed up.

I think this is doable, and MAY simplify things, but I haven't thought
a whole lot on it.  I would suggest you log a feature request in the
bug tracker (category Pacman) so Dan and I can evaluate it a bit more
at a later time.
