It would, but it doesn't seem that user-friendly. What if the user
wants to delete all podcasts older than two weeks, for example?

That's a bummer. You could solve this by implementing a cleaner that
doesn't delete undated episodes and keeping the current episode
deletion feature in gPodder. Or you could develop an auto-cleaner (can
be configured in the Settings window) and leave the episode deletion
feature as it is. Would that provide a good workaround to the broken
feed problem?
