How about all of the above?  Delete lets you delete things that aren't
used.   Some kind of "force delete" which lets you remove things that
are in use (perhaps by way of an obnoxious popup warning dialog, or
perhaps you have to ctrl-delete to make them go away).  And definitely a
"purge" button which iteratively removes all unused items.
