It should work. In fact, I wrote a stack to do that (for music files)
last year and it worked OK for them. Only weakness was that it was
slow - I considered adding an "index file" to each directory, which
would store the file names and md5 signatures, but hadn't got as far
as doing that.
Other weakness -I decided it wasn't worth adding refinements because
it was a one-off effort to merge two lots of music files and I got it
completed OK before I had refined the stack, so I didn't keep the
stack :-(
I'll try re-creating it from memory and see if it's as easy as I
remember ...
Not quite as easy as I remember - especially if you want anyone else to
be able to use it !!

Not the prettiest stack even I have written, and doesn't have all the
robustness checks a commercial product would have - but does what it
needs to do.
