Is there a way to do a selective expire when using TDP MS/SQL Version 2?

Version 1 of TDP MS/SQL allowed (required) the ability to expire any backup
not just the oldest backup.  However with Version 2, Tivoli appears to have
remove this function.

With version 1, the dba's can retain selected backups for an extended period
of time, the first of the month backup is retained for 1 year and the last
backup of the year is retained for 3 years.  To have this same capability
with version 2 seems to require multiple dsm.opt files and multiple
copygroups.
