And, as I have found (in 0.27.4), any post-recording jobs like commflagging will continue on those recordings even if deleted because, well, they aren't really being deleted. Now I use real-time commflagging but those who don't or who use auto-transcoding should keep this in mind. 

Maybe someday the retain setting can be overridden on a per-recording basis.
