Just a noob here (so take with a big grain of don't blame me), but if an rm -rf /etc actually is what happened imho you'd need to REALLY want your config files to spend the time attempting recovery.
/home should still persist just fine regardless of your partitioning scheme unless you did something silly on day 1 like change the default home to /etc/home. You should wait for better minds than mine to confirm, but you could probably either: - Boot from an install media (CD, etc - I don't know if hd0a:/bsd.rd would work in this case or not? List?) and (U)pgrade following recommended procedures. You'd still need to start from a fresh /etc though. - If you have the capability, you could toss the drive into another device and mount your home partition to grab yer stuff.
