can RoboCopy copy a Junction but not its contents?

hi.
i've just been reading up on RoboCopy and am considering it as a
partition-level backup tool, especially for moving a windows installation to
a new drive: http://geekswithblogs.net/lorint/arc...07/100596.aspx
it seems to have a major deficiency in how it handles junction points. as
far as i know, it either exclude junctions altogether or recursively copy
their contents (in a recursive junction situation like the application-data
child-parent link).

the problem with using /XJ to exclude junctions is that you get an
incomplete backup, you are missing all those junction points. my web server
uses junctions extensively and it would be a pain to have to set them up
again in a restore scenario. surely it would make sense to have an option
to copy the junction only (i.e. the file system pointer) and not the
contents?
