fast packageTemplateSet

If there is a great reason why using path has been preferred above being file-specific, then please explain this in the documentation.

Can you add more .mst files along the way to a package as you can with 'zip'? How will this impact existing templates and can this break deployed fast templates?

I would prefer to have more options on how one can package and make it more user-friendly.

features to add are:

Hi Shyawn,

Then as a bare minimum explain how the packageTemplateSet works and how to use this from a best practice.

Just be aware that using .zip or using packageTemplateSet differs from an outcome perspective, because .zip does allow you to select on file level.
