This was done to clean up the large number of auxiliary output files which are created during the process. I will fine-tune this to ensure that only files created by pinta or its subprocesses are (re)moved.

Tested and it works.
The --retain-aux option seems to filter and move files on the basis of extension. This results in moving the files that are actually not created by pinta, which is not desirable. I have noticed this happening with *.info files, might also be true for other types. Extrapolating from this, the absence of --retain-aux will imply that pinta could potentially delete files that are not its intermediate products but rather created by someone else, which could be very damaging.
