The nice thing with the confirmation dialog is that it shows the list
before asking (and unlike 'rm -i', it asks only once).
I wouldn't object to having "clean -i", which automatically defeats
the requireforce option.

As to a huge single list you have to approve or reject as a whole, I
am on the fence.  When running "rm -i", I often wished to see
something like that, but I am fairly sure that I'll call it unusable
the first time I see a list with a few items I want to keep while
removing all others.
