You might not necessarily have to fork BitTorrent and instead if you have your own protocol for grouping and breaking the data into manageable chunks of a particular size and each one of those represents an actual full torrent. Then you won't necessarily have to worry about completion levels on those torrents and you can rely on the protocol to do its thing.

Instead of trying to modify the protocol modify the process that you wish to use protocol with.
