Would it be possible to allow a preference as to where to save the backup zip when publishing a new UI version?

I am using RW to construct a UI for my iOS app, and since the .zip is in the normal published package I have to make sure to delete it before I go to production, as it adds an extra 80M to an already large download.

I am using 8.8.3,BTW. It’d be nice to not have to do that.

You can switch it off to “Never” backup.  
Or perhaps create another publishing location for when you “go live”.

Perhaps that would work for you?
