BackupPC adds that.  To include just a particular path, rsync
needs rules to include each directory and exclude everything
else at each level.  For example, to include just /home/user,
you need:

    --include='/home'
    --include='/home/user'
    --exclude='/*'
    --exclude='/home/*'

I agree this translation can become problematic when you want to
include several things with wildcards.
