I'm not as familiar with the v3 terminology (I'm still stuck on v2), but in v2 
you could theoretically accomplish something like this with a custom module.  
Write a script that tests whatever condition you want to fix and have it output 
a custom class, like "+fix_file_foo" and run that script as a module.  Then 
have the file copy rule only apply when that class is defined.  If you have 
hundreds of files you want to monitor for fixes in this way that might become 
unwieldy, but it might be possible to make it a bit more efficient by having 
the module also define a variable list of files to fix and then have the copy 
rule iterate through that list.
