------------------------------------

The VH need only to be kept when there are remaining Version attached to it. In many apps, it would be great to get rid of empty VH (ie no more Version, and no more Node referencing it).
This doesn't seem right to me. Kind of defeats the purpose of Versioning if we start removing deleted items, deleted is just another state in the history that should be tracked and preserved.

Deleting Versions means actually deleting these history states.
Its no more than an administrative task, which in some cases may be very useful, eg. to maintain the repository as small as possible, or to keep only important versions (up to the app, of course). The point of this JCR-134 issue is only that when there is no more Version in the VH (they have all been deleted) and no more Node in any workspace referencing this VH, there should be a way to also delete the VH, which can't be useful anymore.

Cédric
