I guess I should have read the entire thread. :-) (still getting used to the new lei + mutt workflow). This was my thought - bulk delete is going to be a common need, and it is really just a mass delete. The GET message types are used for dumps and some allow attributes on the request as a means of coarse grain filtering. I think we should try something similar here for the flush case.
