I don't want to do a complete backup like Nandroid because I don't want to back up the ROM.
I'm pretty sure that her contacts, emails, and apps will be automatically reloaded onto the phone after I reconnect it to her Google account, right? But what about other stuff like SMS and others I might be missing?

Her contacts and their information should be backed up to her google account, for programs use Titanium to back them up and if she's on a custom rom already a lot already have ways to back them up to an .xml file that you can re-import after flashing the new rom, personally I use GoSMS Pro which is free on the market and it has a built in back-up program that you can use to re-import the texts and sms's, great program that has a lot of functions that I like, like it wakes the phone and unlocks it when you get a text message and also has different vibrate functions to notify you, all you would have to do is flash the new rom and when you use Titanium to reinstall your programs GoSMS Pro should be reinstalled and then you re-import all your text and sms messages.
