I have also had your problems with changes to root. I usually just take the easy way out and add the contents of /root to the local package, and backup local. To do this, just add "root" to /var/lib/lrpkg/local.list (for full backups) and/or "I root" to /var/lib/lrpkg/local.local (for partial backups).
