Two categories here;
1). Active players for whom their backhand is very good relative to other backhands (for example, 2nd best backhand of all time) whilst, comparatively, their forehand is not as good relative to other forehands (for example, 'only' 10th best forehand of all time). But, for a general groundstroke, their forehand is still better, so they'd still run around their backhands if possible. Examples include;
Djokovic
Fognini
Melzer
Murray
Nalbandian
Niemenin
Seppi
Tipseravic
Troicki
Wawrinka
2). Those rare active players whose backhand is actually just better as a groundstroke than their forehand is (so they'd be tempted to run around their forehand to hit a backhand).
Gasquet
Gulbis
Paire
Volandri
Add to these list(s) and disagree with them if you will...
