Yeah, it's a fantastic combo. I recently opted to do subsequent dev on Knockout.js, though. LOC for markup, styling, and javascript under this regime is fantastically small and really quick to develop.
Don't mean to hijack, but I'm curious if anyone has gone the other way, i.e., choose backbone over knockout. My main concern is DOM overload/GC issues. Backbone is also considerably smaller, but that's not as important in my context.
Bootstrap and backbone are great together. I wish there was more concrete tutorials on getting the two to play nice, but all I could find was bits and pieces about both. Even with that I have managed to knock out a few prototypes fairly easily.
