Yes you are right that is not as comfortable as it could be. The feature that 
directories are compressed came as an additional feature some time after we had 
the possiblity to download updates from a repository.

But some of the ifw users are deciding case by case which file should be 
downloaded inside the script. For example 32/64bit and that is the reason why 
we doesn't generate the downloadableArchive list automaticaly. Not sure what 
the best way would be to make both usecases possible. Maybe something like if 
there is no downloadableArchive value in xml or script then just generate that 
from the content/data directory of that component. I created a task on jira: 
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTIFW-210 and I introduce you to vote 
on it ;)

Sorry don't understand that. In which case do you have these 4 steps?
