You are asking too much for this first approach..This is the first time I'm using KIO.
I simply will remove the oldest files. 
There is now no way to know if a file is in any of the two cases you present. But there are manually and complex workarounds.. file rights in the first case, and removing the noatime in the second.

I tried to present more than 3 buttons (delete, file manager, sweeper and config), but I only know how to handle the 3 first buttons.

Nepomuk, and thumbnail:// kioslave, next version. (You could talk about the specs in Berlin... I can not go this year also, but I've been closer).
