One example is when the puppet mesh generated by the alpha does not have to change, I may for example just have made sure to keep the new PSD version layers within that puppet mesh, so all I want to do is swap all layers in a comp at the same time rather than one by one.

I like the puppet tool but I wouldn't want to trust it when swapping the layer sources.

Have you tried Duik?  It's free and awesome.  I haven't used it for a few years and can only assume it keeps getting better.  The results are slightly different to the puppet tool - no smooth deformations - but it is much easier to swap elements in and out:


Worth a look.
