I think this is a serious problem that deserves a higher standard of reference than the unacceptable situation imposed by Windows.

A second mystery to me is why Filein operations are irreversable. What's the problem? I know how to write the reversing instructions
when I do the
damage in other systems. Why do people put up with being unable to
retreat?
Ever tried a clean uninstall of just about anything on Windows? 90% of the time I find the uninstallers require manual help ie:
"some files could not be removed"
So, you could force developers to write uninstall code, as occurs for Windows, but this doesn't seem to be terribly successful.
