There is an option when using latest code from svn head to  
automatically move the recordings to a Deleted group which is then  
expired before the others. I've been using this and actually forgot I  
was using it until you mentioned it. It's nice to be able to pull  
stuff back out once in a while. If you're not adventurous enough to  
run unstable code, this will be in the next release but like always..  
no one knows when that might happen.
