Currently, `shred` can securely wipe single file without remaining any
recoverable data on the storage, while `rm` can only un-link the file.
However, `rm` is capable to remove files recursively, with "-R/"--recursive"
flag, it is able to remove entire specific directory tree.
It would be awesome, if it support "-R" flag, which can wipe whole directory
tree, include shred file content, rename files and folder names with random
string.
