Adding .rar 'format' as rar.

Short question:

Is it possible to add a .rar file with a *single* format (i.e. one PDF and nothing else) to an existing book and have it *remain* a rar, without autoextracting and adding it as a PDF?

Longer Explanation:

I'm working my way through my library, with the goal of eventually converting everything to an .odt file.

Anything that isn't a quick convert due to bad formatting, headers and the like, I'm exporting, wrapping, and adding as a .rar file. Partly to streamline formats and partly to save a smidge of space.

I'm fussy about my formats, my goal is to eventually have two formats only: .odt's for converted books, and .rars for everything else.

Right now I've been using the workaround of exporting the bad format into a folder that has a 0 size text file. I add the two files to a .rar file, which then gets added to the book entry.

As I do have a mostly suitable workaround, this isn't a huge deal, I'm just wondering if there's some tweak or plugin that I've missed.

Thanks for your help!
