My suggestion was to remove the chflags and add a echo in the failure
case of rm, because in the current way the flags are removed even if
the user tells to not remove a file at the interactive rm prompt and
the user is not told about it. In my original version there was an echo
that the flags are removed unconditionally.

Dag-Erling doesn't like the echo of removing flags when there are no
flags, and I don't like that there's no echo when removing flags. To
try to come to a consensus I suggested the above.

It seems we need a 3rd opinion (provide your bikeshed color wisely
please, think 10 times before you reply).

Bye,
Alexander.
