You may want to consider adding /Library also. This would include system configuration and preference files. The /User libraries only include the user level configs and prefs.

My excludes are mostly for transient things like logs and caches: nice, thanks Are you trying to backup the entire system, including OS and apps? My goal is only to backup user data in BackupPC. I let Time Machine take care of the bare metal backup. Yeah. I do have Carbon Copy Cloner backups too. I guess I was thinking a yet another near mirror backup would be nice to have, but I guess backing up outside /Users is just pointless and a waste of disk space.
