Deleting empty directories is It would be possible to check if there are only lockfiles in the directory which are older than $locktime and delete the folder and the lockfiles if this is the case. of course this does not really solve the problem but it makes it more bearable. also it would be possible to delete a namespace that has only old lockfiles in it by creating an empty page and deleting it again... if you can follow me ... IMHO a way to force the deletion of a namespace would be yet another bit cleaner...
