I think its a good idea, but i am not sure if 100% extra is maybe a bit too much, sure alot of players wont get that but there is a chance they will. To be honest most players should really put alot of those things you mentioned into creating a characters background without having to get extra points, i think they should want to do it from a roleplaying point of view. One of the players in my group never writes a background as he feels that you are jinxing the character to die, which to be honest i have seen before, they do not write a background for quite some time, then when they have done a few adventures they think now is the right time to add more to the chararcter, but no sooner is it done a unlucky(or lucky depending on who it is) shot blows them away.
