I still think that it would be useful if I could click on a file in the MetaData Edit dialog, and have an option to "make into RAR" file.

I could then use this to easily create the master copy in the vast majority of cases. The problem at the moment is if using the normal Add Books route the contents of a RAR tend to automatically get extracted as part of the Add process. Since Calibre seems to be quite happy to process transparently process the contents of a RAR file when converting this would mainly be painless.

Of course some other file type could be used - I only suggested RAR as there is already support for that, and it would not collide with the current use of ZIP for HTml.
