Why not?
- put versioning underneath your ext 
(git/svn/csv/perforce/mercurial/bazaar/...) and you are 100% sure 
nothing can go wrong.
- master branch has (experimental(!!!)"roundtrip" feature and keeps all 
your changes

See above, user "roundtrip" feature and version control system. I'd 
never trust a kickstarter alone, even with a bug-free roundtrip feature.

Personally I do it with git and a "kickstarter" branch, that's where I 
kickstart only... whenever I need to kickstart/edit the model then I 
switch into kickstarter branch, save, commit, and merge into "master".

At least that is not as boring as editing ext_tables.sql ext-tables.php 
Configuration/TCA/* Resources/Private/Language/* Domain/Model/* by hand. ;)

Greets and hth,
Peter
