There is no real benefit from 7zip. In times of terabyte hds the gained space is not real something to argue. Besides of that, scanning and especially fixing solid archives is a pain and slow. Nearly no emulator supports 7zip and it's not really standarized as zip is. The source code api is a pain and not documented at all. So...no real benefit from adding it. Rar on the other hand is not even free.

For your second request: You can easily change the merge mode with all three modules, scanner, rebuilder and merger. Each module can change the mode on the fly.
