If the user modifies the build script, I guess it's okay to keep the  
build results there and don't delete it.

All in all I think that majority of users just want to delete the  
whole project directory. I would say we don't need to run the clean  
build before that.

For those users who created a NB project from existing sources and  
want just delete the project metadata which are stored into the  
original non-NB project directory, we maybe don't need to run the  
clean either.

Maybe the whole delete behavior is too complicated unnecessarily.
