Hi folks,
Thanks for a great tool.

Is it possible to give the option to ignore flagging cloud files in GoogleDrive? For example on a comparison, it will show that locally I have a "My Letter.docx" that's missing on GD, and on GD it will show a "My Letter" that is missing from local. As the cloud files are 0 bytes, there's no way to compare meaningfully anyway.

This would involve, I guess, checking if it's a GD folder on one side, checking for 0 byte file, and checking for a local comparison file that has one of a number of cloud-file-pulled extensions (docx, xlsx, etc)

I have a use-case where I am syncing my Google Drive and local NAS drive, but there's no way to accommodate moving files between folders. I'd like to use FFS to compare local file systems between syncs to quickly delete files that have been moved, before the sync task just creates multiple copies by pulling them across again.
