Fragmenting the app's ContentSync config will enable more control over content management and app content updates.
The mobile app when aware of these different ContentSync configs can request update zips as required.
This can be broken down by; geo, lang, year or month of content or any other meaningful separation.
The effort is in the separation of ContentSync config and in the mobile app knowing when to pull the appropriate content package.
As Bruce mentioned there will be better support and samples of this coming soon.
