I guess I'm missing why you would ever want to delete anything
manually.  With bpc the actual files are going to be in the pool
anyway and you almost certainly don't want to delete anything manually
from there because you'd lose things that are pooled from other hosts.
  In any case, though, if the next (rsync) run does not find an
existing copy it should fill it back in.  Tar/smb backups would take a
full run to recover since they only transfer new files by timestamp on
incrementals.
