Backupmenu is what I'm just learning to use... So to make a root-enabled rootfs image, I have to install rootsh first, then back up rootfs using backupmenu, and finally convert the rootfs image to what I can flash with flasher-3.5, is that right?
Right, but keep in mind this is only the rootfs part of the firmware.
Also, does this mean I can even pre-install other softwares (e.g. Faster Application Manager) and make a custom rootfs with them included?
Only non-optified packages will work in rootfs-only images.

You will need backupmenu in your rootfs image to extract a backupmenu-created backup in an additional steps like an ordinary backupmenu recovery.
