Correct. It's like reloading windows. But, someone said before that doing a backup from stock(6) and then loading it to (6.1) isn't a good idea because files are saved in new locations. That's like taking a backup of XP, loading Vista, and then doing the XP backup. Good luck with that...
I've noticed that some of the names of things have changed. So I would agree that file names and locations have changed as well. I would just install the rom (or wait for sprint) and then just install from scratch. I did it this morning and it only took me an hour. I had all the cab files to install in one folder. Drop them all onto your SD card at once and then install away. You should be done in 2 hours tops.
