Don't interrupt or cancel updates (it will redownload the remainder of the
mirror.)

This allows all files containing a dot from anywhere (most of the internet)

Not a valid filter.
If you ONLY want files under webpages the filter is:
-* +*/webpages/*
Add the near flag (get non-html related) to get css/js/images from where ever

See <http://www.httrack.com/html/step1.html> and options->build

yes

Won't work, filenames in cache won't match new structure and will be purged.
Finish the mirror and then move them, but you won't be able to update.
