Description
- I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
- I have searched the FAQ and general documentation and believe that my question is not already covered.
Feature Request
I'd like to add an option to the poetry installer which can remove the virtualenv directory as part of the uninstall. This could default to False to keep with current behaviour.
I'm happy to submit this myself if others would think it's a useful feature but I don't know where the installer script lives!

Research direction
Start by locating the installer script and its uninstall path in the repository, then inspect how the virtualenv directory is identified. Add an uninstall option that defaults to false and removes the virtualenv when enabled. Confirm that the existing uninstall behavior remains unchanged when the option is omitted.
