If this is deemed "Important" (for anyone upgrading over the next

"2.1.10a" (or 2.1.11 or whatever nomeclature is appropriate) that
automatically does this cleaning?I think this is a good idea. If I had remembered about the unparseable .bak files, and thought it through, I could have added code to bin/update to remove them, and I still can for a fix-up release.
Also, In another thread, Barry asked for feedback on "some kind of shunt queue culler cron script". I think this is a good idea, either for a separate cron, or incorporated into one of the existing crons.
How about something like a couple of Default config settings like
BAD_SHUNT_ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY = None BAD_SHUNT_STALE_AFTER = days(7)
With the idea being anything in the 'bad' or 'shunt' queues older than BAD_SHUNT_STALE_AFTER would be discarded or moved to BAD_SHUNT_ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY if it existed.
Do people like this idea?
+1, but I think it should be a separate cron script. Keep 'em small
and simple!
