Lurk: lie in wait, lie in ambush, behave in a sneaky and secretive manner 
Lurk: to hang out or wait around a location, preferably without drawing
attention to oneself

If I lost 17MB on my old laptop (as it has very little space left) to XML
files, I would certainly feel as though I had been ambushed by Okular. That the
files were buried in $HOME/.kde implies a secret (hidden) location. That they
build up over time, and never get erased, means that issue is not immediately
apparent. Ergo, to lurk.

I most certainly will not waste my time developing something and THEN have it
discussed for inclusion, or tossed by the wayside.

If you want to accept my proposal that Okular automatically deletes XML files
for which it cannot find an existing PDF, then I will develop it and you will
include it on the main branch (provided it meets your standards).
