[Gnu-arch-users] Possible to destructively modify an archive?

Imagine you accidentally commit something very large to an archive and
you want to remove it, or imagine you're legally required to remove
some project from a large archive.  Are removals possible?

Along the same lines, is it possible to "export" part of an archive
and then import that part into some position in another archive?
While I realize that in the normal case, this probably shouldn't be
done (or rather should just be done via tagging), I still wondered if
this was possible.

Thanks
