'Replace' files/folders instead of 'Merging'?

[PolarizedIons]

Sort-of a question, sort-of a feature request:

I would like to use this library for our own Portal 2 mod loader, but would like to essentially hide a real dir/file completely from the game, and instead show only the content of a mapped folder.

Is this doable with the current version? Or would this be a feature request?

I did see mention of virtual 'deletes' in the usvfs.h file comment, right at the top, but couldn't find a method for it.

Thank you!

I didn't think it's designed to do this yet but there are other scenarios this could be useful like profile saves. (The way it's currently done is to specify a different download directory and then virtualize that location, which has pitfalls and drawbacks, since not all games let you do that.)

So this is a config option we should consider.
