Most definately not using either, as the correct operation of 
delete-after shows.

Interesting idea, but due to the setup is a bit of a complicated config 
change (it involves numerous "file server" VMs built using a pre-defined 
build system) - I'd prefer rsync to just stop deleting-during on I/O 
errors, but your suggestion is something to bear in mind as well. Plus on 
some of the targets the snapshot could still disappear at some point even 
with that change.
