How does that happen _now_ with the current ModalityWorkList
plugin ? (without regard to anything I said would be useful
from a GNUmed point of view)

I would have assumed there's two ways:

	There's a standard DICOM way of saying "remove this
	worklist entry" (regardless of whether it is completed).

or

	Delete the corresponding *.wl from the worklist directory
	being watched by Orthanc.

I agree that there would be a need for a second REST API
call, namely to remove a give MWL entry.

Wait, does the ServeFolder plugin help any ?  Does it support
put/delete of files in the served directory ?

Sure. Do you think I should open a card on Trello or is the
above a wontfix from the beginning ?
