AM335x + TPS65217C + backup battery

We are making a battery powered handheld device, something like a mobile phone or PDA, with user-replaceable battery.  

AM335x VDD_RTC need 1.8V power supply, which may be powered by TPS65217C/LDO1 in SLEEP mode; but if user removes battery, RTC is reset. 

I wonder what is the recommended way to add a backup battery (3V lithium rechargeable or supercapacitor)?

And if the backup battery discharge to a low level, e.g. user removes the battery for an extended period,  put it back and charge the device again, in this case, should I use a separate reset IC to make sure the RTC_PORZ signal is good? or I can reset RTC domain via software or GPIO?
