All right.
Well, it seems like it will add more cognitive load in the "common"
scenario -- where you end up deleting the file you said you want to
delete.
And it will be a breaking change in the existing behavior/UI.
If you delete from disk it behaves exactly like how it's doing right
now. The only difference should be when you delete and immediately
restore from backup and in that case, only vc-dir shows one extra file.
I don't think it brakes any existing behavior.
But the file would stay around, right? That would be different.
Only if you give vc-delete-file a prefix argument, otherwise it'll be
exactly the same. It will delete even if we use git rm --cached (because
it is checked later if the file exists anymore or not)
