--------------------------------------------------------------

Retention deletes on the basis of creation time or last accessed time. Like 
retention the consumers, *if any* exist, will also have to consume only on the 
base of creation time/access time to avoid consuming files scheduled for 
deletion. Use case may also be as simple as a way to automatically delete 
temporary/unused files/directories from a location and no consumers as such.
