Yes, hitting the save button in CvPcb sends a KiwayExpress message to Eeschema with the footprint assignments.
The back import button has to remain for legacy designs and users who don't import the .cmp file into the schematic and use the s-expr netlist to load footprints in Pcbnew. It can also be used to back import footprint changes made in Pcbnew. We could consider moving it to a less used menu but for short term while users are busy back importing their .cmp files, leaving it on the toolbar is probably best.
