An awesome piece of work. I have but two wishes, saving one for later :)

1) a log
2) an option that says in effect overwrite all the files I did not
   modify.

My reasons for wanting (2) are I was updating a 4.1 system I had just
installed from the CD to 4.2-BETA and nothing really had changed,
certainly not the periodic scripts and defaults. I have not looked at this
enough to have an opinion on how to determine/tag "unmodified" files. 
Editing something in the file would be fine with me. 

The log would serve to address an "oop's.
