Will StarDraft support compressed archives full of patched files?

StarDraft versions 2.0 and higher have support for CWAD Archives (Compressed WAD files). These CWAD files are far more advanced than the previous version of patching. They not only provide compression, but a drag and drop interface to creating your own CWAD files just like Windows Explorer does. The compression is equivalent to that of a ZIP file, and they ease the distribution of a large TC. (It can be placed in one or more CWAD files instead of subdirectories). You can load multiple CWAD files at one time with the Patch loader, provided that they are all located where your current copy of ploader.exe is stored.
