Yes, well.. as far as I know it's the only way. Good thing is that you can 
exclude "everything besides this and that". I'm backing up some scripts 
from /usr/local/bin like this:
FileSet {
  ...
  Include {
    Options {
      ...
      Wild = "/usr/local/bin/ldap-*"
      Wild = "/usr/local/bin/setup_chroot.sh"
    }
    Options {
      Exclude = yes
      Wild = "/usr/local/bin/*"
    }
    File = "/usr/local/bin"
    ...
  }
}

And why do include the extra quotes (the escaped ones) in the WildDir option?
