Remote wipe blocked files with the desktop client #130

Expected behaviour

We work on a projects, which, after completion, are tagged as "archived". Any new users who require access to the projects can only do so via webinterface, and not via desktop client sync - as set per File Access Control.

However, users who had previously synced the folder (before it was tagged with "archived") retain their client synced copy. It would be great if any such folders on the client machine could be removed.

Actual behaviour

Users who had previously synced the folder (before it was tagged with "archived") retain their client synced copy.

Well we didn't plan to do this yet, because e.g. when you use the time or IP or some other temporary condition, the items would be deleted and re-downloaded every time, causing heavy load on the server and your local machine.

It's simply a use case we can't cover at the moment in a way that is not too intrusive.
