Implement container deletion?

I had the following problem today: I was writing teardown tests for PUT operations. Currently, NSS doesn't check if LDP interaction models are inconsistent with the type of resource actually created, so it ends up creating resources that should have been rejected with 409. That's a very small issue, it probably doesn't happen in the wild anyway, we just want to tighten it up for the future.

Since the teardown tests are supposed to reset the state of the pod to the state it was before running the tests, I need to delete these falsely created resources, but that actually ends up failing the teardown.

I see many ways to fix this on my side, but the simplest would be if NSS was brought to where rough consensus on DELETE stands now, because then, my tests could simply be spec compliant, which is kinda the goal anyway :-)

In https://github.com/solid/specification/issues/41 we found that when deleting a container, the resources it contains should also be deleted if the user has permissions to do so, but it should not recurse and delete subdirectories, if those exist, it should fail.

So, I figured, perhaps I could ask you to do that?

Comece pelo tratamento de DELETE do servidor e leia a issue 41 vinculada da especificação Solid para entender o comportamento esperado dos contêineres. Confirme como as permissões e os recursos contidos são tratados, incluindo o caso de subdiretórios sem recursão. Considera-se concluído quando a exclusão de um contêiner autorizado remove os recursos contidos permitidos, enquanto a exclusão falha quando os subdiretórios exigem recursão.
