This was feature that a lot of thought went into it.
It requires the utilization of BIS keys and needs a greater code complexity.
Also a restore will utilize the formatting and directory traversing of FatFs, which will increase the binary size to great lengths.
This cannot fit, in hekate.
But a smart backup/restore option is nice to have.
So maybe this can be added as a payload module (now that payload launching was materialized internally).
So, I'll keep it open.

I've been wondering about this for awhile and would like to say I think this would be greatly appreciated by anyone who keeps multiple backups, either for redundancy or being able to restore a rawnand.bin from previous firmware versions.
As it stands, the very first backup made on a fresh Nintendo Switch is indeed 29GB, but you can use an archive manager to ZIP the rawnand.bin with Normal compression and it will reduce the size of this backup to give or take 756MB.
When the sectors of the NAND have been used at any point in time, say, by installing a game, this makes compressing the rawnand.bin image impossible, at least up to the point of what was already written to; even if you System Format.
29GB backups add up, so I'd love to see an option to be able to make these smaller.

@giorgi1324 that's already a thing.
Just run the eMMC SYS option instead of GPP.

Here with the same feedback as @Serfrost
OLED full nand backups are pretty much uncompressable and take a lot of space.
Is there any chance we could get an intermediate solution for this where we can skip the USER partition from the backup? My very limited understanding is that there's nothing critical in it for the recovery of Switch.

Oh amazing! I wish the guides out there mentioned this. Thanks for your fast response!
