With /home partitioned off separately (as an LVM partition), I assume I can install F21 "cleanly" in the / partition without risking losing the contents of /home or my access to them. But I still have to write down every modification I made to a configuration file--or else keep copies of those files in /home. They would include, I also assume, things like the files holding the UIDs, GIDs, and passwords for Users and Groups.
I just have an automated daily backup of /etc (on another machine just in case). Encrypt it if the other machine is not under your control.
