Feature:restore to smaller partition without compact

Feature request:restore to smaller partition without compact or resizing partition

I know there are some sector based imaging softwares that can restore smaller partition without using compaction or resizing partition.
I think they are rearranged sectors to fit the free space of parition.
I hope IFW/IFD/IFL can also do that.

Any comments about file based imaging? Is it inferior to sector based imaging?
