Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm studying dotfiles manager now, I have'n used toml-bombadil, I just read the docs yet, so maybe it's not a problem.

Some dotfiles could be changed by the application, like vscode settings.json, how to sync the change to the source file?

Describe the solution you'd like

can we allow some file directly to link to the source file instead of .dots, like: `{source="xxx",target="yyy",type="direct"} Describe alternatives you've considered Manual copy & paste dotfiles.

Having the option to bypass the template engine and use a symlink directly would be nice indeed, I will work on this soon.
