I don't mind that, what I objecting about is the REMOVAL (erasing them totaly)
of the files. I'm not wery happy with them being removed/erased wether a
'purge' or a 'remove', but if it is just stated somewhere visualy, that the
files will be cept/moved to other location if one does a 'remove' and totaly
wanished if one does a 'purge', I don't mind...
