Peter I would be incredibly useful to have a button [ ] autoexpire now on webbackend.
I peruse the API which IMHO is seriously deficiant:
I would let to see
GetFileList be able return the list of “deleted” group files, and a
AutoExpire fileName.

If anybody can correct me, please do.
I shall write a Qt file deletion app that may be of interest to Peter, or others. Concerted learning ahead…
