Title: Ability To Clear Existing Directories Rather Than Delete

I generally want to copy an App_Offline.htm file into the remote application to take it offline while I'm working, so I then want to clear the directory rather than outright deleting it, while maintaining the existence of the app_offline.htm so that the site stays down.

I can then copy my Website over, then delete the app_offline.htm file to bring it back online.
