[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Bug in "Mark/Space Folder Sync"?

The new MS Folder Sync conduit seems to do no checking (compare dates, 
file size, md5sum etc) of the destination file when copying data over. ie, 
it copies every file over to the Palm regardless of whether or not it's 
changed.

When you've got quite a few folders in the Folder Sync configuration, this 
means a HotSync takes a long time as it painstakingly copies every file 
over each time, even if none of the files have actually changed.

Is this a bug or just a lacking feature? :)
