I don't really know anything about patchers, but I guess we need it to d/l a file from a location with filenames and crc's, check for those files locally, and download anything that isn't there or has a crc mismatch. We would also need something at the server end to (re)generate the list on command. But as I said, I don't know anything about patchers so someone else probably has a better idea. It has to run under Windows, though if it runs on more than that it's up to you.

Even though the beta is closed there's nothing stopping you from making zones. If you have a live client you can test them with that as well, just overwrite an existing zone. OpenZone and SimpleClient use the same engines, though, so except for extra details like the UI, sun, moon, stars, fog, lighting, etc., they will look very similar in OpenZone as they will in SC.
