Ross <rossmclendon at tamu.edu> added the comment:

Slight change to:

"Such a method should probably only apply to archives that are in append
mode as write mode would erase the original archive and read mode should
render the archive immutable."

The method should probably still apply to an archive in write mode.  It
is conceivable that one may need to delete a file from the archive after
it has been written but before the archive object has been closed.
