removing unused dirs

I'm creating an RSS feed applet, and I need to store some configuration 
information on a per feed basis.  Naturally I decided to store some of 
this information in seperate gconf directories.

Creating a directory for a newly added feed is straight forward, but how 
do I remove a directory for a newly removed feed?  I don't really want to 
leave files and directories that will most likely never be used again 
lying all over the disk.

Examining my own ~/.gconf and finding artifacts to various uninstalled 
applications and long removed applets implies there really isn't a way to 
do this.  Is this the case, and if so will gconf ever support key and 
directory removal?

Thanks.
