Description
I'm running into cloud syncing issues when I play a game in multiple locations, and the answer is always the same thing -- RetroArch doesn't offer any options to automatically resolve conflicts, so I need to delete files on my own and resync to get a save where I'm interested in playing it.
Absent merge controls or default settings, it'd be handy if I could have a hidden-by-default option in the content menu to delete that game's local saves and states and force a cloud resync. This would let me one-click clean out my old saves from my desktop and force my mobile saves to come in before I started playing.

Research direction
Start by locating the content menu implementation and the WebDAV synchronization path. Determine how a hidden-by-default action could delete the game's local saves and states, then force a cloud resync. Done means the action is available from the content menu and performs the requested purge and repull.
