I really have no idea how that would work. If you don't copy the index somewhere, you simply can't restore it. If you're thinking about selectively copying index files out then back in, you'll have to somehow lock it at point X until your delta-copy is done.
"read the snapshot's XML description and manually delete files not part of that snapshot on each core." How would that deal with segment files that have been added?
