With back stopping on hills, you just make sure you note who you have overtaken and where they are on the road, while shepherding at your own speed while the other riders go at theirs.
The main group should be waiting at the top, while breathing heavily, anyway :)
Back stopping is more important on the flat/rolling and if the group is strung out at junctions or big turns.
