The answer to your question is a quantified yes. If you don't use root to change system files you won't have any problems taking ota's. You will loose root with each ota, but with the bootloader unlocked you will be able to regain root. Follow the op on rooting kitkat. Skip loading the custom recovery and you will be good. You will just have to run the two apk's for root and unlock and your done.

Get it rooted and unlocked. Then once it's unlocked, worry about backup. First, my RSD Script Generator can create a KEEP DATA script that will, if you're on stock, recover from most situations you'll get yourself into. That should be a relief yes? Second, if you get into roms, your recovery of choice will allow you to nandroid that beotch. The nandroid will allow you to restore back to the point where you took the backup. So, you're covered. Finally, titanium backup is a good option to make backups of applications and their data so you can restore your apps when trying out a new rom, or returning back to stock while keeping your updated data.

P.S. Please for the love of God unlock the thing. Don't debate. Just do it. It's been my mission to get everyone unlocked for good reason. The benefits outweigh the downsides.
