Comment (by gnotaras):

 The bottom line is whether you want to give us the option to delete the
 previous static files deployment in STATIC_ROOT through the collectstatic
 command, and, if yes, whether you want collectstatic to perform this fatal
 operation by default or not.

 After thinking about it for a while, either solution makes sense. However,
 as a user, I'd like to have the choice to regenerate STATIC_ROOT from
 scratch, but I wouldn't want the collectstatic command to perform any
 deletions by default.
