I'm not so sure this option would make a lot of sense.  An option not

which behaviour makes more sense and then just do it.

Actually, the aforementioned backup scenario implies to me that setting
the timestamp makes more sense.  Restoring a broken Cygwin installation
from a backup and then immediately getting rebase problems again, just
because an incremental backup didn't catch the rebased DLLs sounds pretty
frustrating.  OTOH, who's doing incremental backup these days?

I am. I don't feel like buying a new hard drive or a new disk server every month or so in order to preserve all my backups as long as I often need them - some
problems simply aren't obvious for a few months.
