Reg. #3: http://wpkg.org/WPKG_flags#Rarely_used_parameters
use wpkg.js /config:anotherconfig.xml and/or /base:path-to-newer-xml-and-files

Reg. #4: why do you have a remove command in your package if you don't want the
files to be removed? Any time later you can introduce a newer revision with a
remove command if you really want to remove the files - since the update is
made before removal since http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79#c42

If I understand you right, Tomasz, you could do the following:

- have a location with the original 2GB contents and a corresponding package#1
  which does rsync -a --delete source target   or   robocopy source target /mir

- have a location with the files different to the original 2GB content and a
corresponding package#2 which does rsync or robocopy to the same target as
package#1 but without deleting (if you want to delete files, you would have to
specify them in another install/upgrade cmd)

So you can have several clients with original package#1, other clients with
additional package#2. You can even have a "remove-only" package#3. But for this
case I miss a check "if missing file ..." -> install the package (install cmd
in this case removes the 2GB of course). Perhaps one could use something like
logical "not", didn't check this (http://wpkg.org/Logical_tests).
