What might work for the deletes is a dynamically built --exclude-from list in combination with --delete excluded and possibly --prune-empty-dirs. I've never tried this with --files-from, but it should work as long as non-existant source file does not cause a problem with the filter logic. You should not need --recursive. You just need the --exclude-from file to contain full paths.
