Suggested feature: More granular control of Sync options

Suggested feature: More granular control of Sync options

This would be helpful in my business, how about for others?

 

The ability to control Sync options so that:

1. You can set exclusion criteria for the folders selected for synching -- whether excluding by a file type (e.g., *.MP4), size, or date.

2. Better control over prioritizing the order of Synching, like specifying a preferred folder that always goes first.

3. Better control over pausing the current active sync of a large file that is clogging up the synch process so you can quickly prioritize a file that needs to be synched, but was waiting for the current large file to be done.
