Yes such a feature would be a valuable contribution. It's certainly something
that other users have asked for.
Your main issue is probably going to be verifying that there aren't open
transactions against the old versions of the data, Andy might have some
ideas/pointers to whether the internals of TDB2 allow for determining that?
There won't be any transactions on the old store - when compaction has
finished, the system goes into "exclusive" mode to switch the active
database from old to new.
By the time compaction returns, the old database is no longer used for
anything (except for the Windows thing).

I would love it if we could have an automatic deletion option with the
compact task, otherwise, a good amount of work can end up being needed just to
ensure that a no longer needed `Data-****` folder is removed. Is this something
that the maintainers are willing to consider? If so, I’d be willing to help
with the implementation of it.
Thanks.
