How does this exactly solve the problem that I want to download all
binaries from my leafnode and not from my ISP:s server? I have one group
on my leafnode and I occasionally, about once a month, want to download
all the binaries it has collected. When I do this I want to download
them only from my leafnode, not from my ISP. And no, I don't see
removing/disabling one server once a month very convenient.

Can I edit prefs to make a server primary/secondary/whatever for one
group or group of groups? :P So that group a is handled from server 1,
group b from server 2?
