Dave -- I just read the part of Joe Kissel's book that mentions Backup Bouncer results. (I'm a bit late to the party.) I trust your decision to NOT copy the useless stuff, but understand your desire for a BB A+ score. How much extra time are we talking in order to copy this un-needed metadata? If it's a chunk, then perhaps you could include a preference for people to decide whether or not to copy it.
As drives are typically reaching 500GB, 1TB and even 2TB sizes these days it's getting important to speed up the backup process. Perhaps you could include a preference for a "faster backup" that omits copying useless stuff?
