> By default, when Trash is enabled, -rm and -rmr just move files/directories to .Trash, which are actually deleted after some time set in the config.
> When DFS gets full, we need to quickly create space on it by deleting files, so it will be good to have a --force option to both -rm and -rmr, so that files are actually deleted and not moved.
