It certainly wouldn't hurt to "seal" it on the back side until you get above the wall. It won't see the light of day - so UV protection etc doesn't come into play but water 'wicks' and build up of snow etc and you could certainly get moisture up behind there. It's the old an ounce of prevention rule...
