I don't think it needs to be more complicated - but I would feel inclined to make backups of /etc/passwd and /etc/group as well (and login.conf, login.access, if you have changed them from the default). But of course, there will be almost as many approaches as there are FreeBSD users, so whatever works for you is surely the best bet!
