Feature request: remove files from the cloud without syncing the change to local devices #51

Hi,
I want to remove a file from my MEGA cloud without having the deletion synced to my devices.
Imagine I sync a large directory which -among others- contains some files and directories which I want to remove from my cloud but keep them in local storage (e.g. configuration data).
Currently, if I delete them from my cloud the change will be synced and the files and directories will be deleted from local storage.

I need the web-client to have an option which will allow the deletion and exclusion of selected files and directories from syncing ever again.
I need a server-side exclusion to be available from the context menu of the web-client.
Then, each MEGAsync-client, on any device, will not sync these files and directories. (it will not add them in the local exclusion-list, but it will just not upload them since the server will deny them)

The option of making local exclusions for each one of the multiple files and directories on each device is a time-consuming and complicated. It also results in a huge exclusion-list on each device which -especially with the current unscalable UI of the MEGAsync-app- is unmaintainable.

Can it be implemented?
Thanks in advance!
