If it's a use case that would be useful to people, this is a mode of operation I would definitely be willing to include in the project. Feel free to open an issue (or even better - a PR!) with the idea. :)

I've thought about this, previously I've changed this by just replacing your /bin/ln calls to mv but I think that attempting to add this to the tool may cause some confusion. Obviously it wouldn't be the default behavior and you'd have to enable it probably through the ENV variable, but this would render all commands but install virtually useless I think which wouldn't make much sense in its current state I don't think.
