If you do that, the next time you start btsync you'll have to configure the identity and folders again (apart from recreating said folder).

I'm having this exact problem, although I arrived to it in a different manner. The only way I can think of evading this is to define a config file which points storage_path to a folder outside the scope of your home folder... which wouldn't exactly serve as an entire backup of your home folder, but it's something.
