I hope you do move in that direction.  There are surprisingly few tools to 
backup a Samba share currently.  And none of them have the rapid restore 
capability of rdiff-backup.

If you do start moving in that direction, Andreas Gruenbacher has a set of 
libraries and fileutils that support both ACLs and EAs.  I believe that Andreas 
wrote the kernel EA and ACL extensions that are now in the vanilla kernel.
