You _should_ have that expectation.

If it does not remove with the code that has been prepared for 2.0
(that is a bit beyond 'next'), then it is a big problem, but I think
it does remove the removed python source without "-A", as long as
you give a pathspec "*.py" (with quotes around it) that match it.

I think it is just the warning code avoiding extra complexity and
overhead, if you are talking about not getting warning in the
pre-2.0 step that is in 'next'.  Patches are very much welcomed,
especially the ones that come before I get around to it ;-)
