A good idea in general, but I prefer to run 'tlmgr update' in batch
mode, especially at work, where I can't spend too much time on the
updates.
If Norbert is willing (and has time to) implement an interactive mode,
I suggest tri-state logic for auto-remove:
true / false / ask
Perl doesn't have real boolean variables anyway. ;)
Any default value is fine for me. But I suppose that most users prefer
to be asked in advance by default.
Regards,
Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
