I know, that sounds pretty stupid... but as I am developer and qa guy too, I've seen a lot of stupid errors and made even more myself. It's just an idea, the problem sounds pretty strange to me.
Or did you give it a try with a different phone (to be sure, it's not a hardware specific problem)?
P.S.: If the apple guy knows, what he's talking about, there should be someone telling apple what all the sandboxing stuff is about. As far as I understood it (from the apple specs), it should be impossible for any application to corrupt others or the OS itself. For every application, it looks feels and works like the application is the only one on the phone or in the hole wide world.

Good suggestion but my database was small.

OmniFocus doesn't have access to the firmware, and its sandbox is completely isolated from the sandbox used by each other application. However, maybe iTunes is having trouble backing up OmniFocus' individual sandbox for some reason.

Does the backup actually fail (with some sort of error), or does it just seem to hang halfway through?

Have you checked the Console log to see if any messages there might indicate what's going on?
