As it is now, all installed files are kept.
With union sandbox the sandbox target is kept, right? Are any files  
installed into $target? I think that, for fibo sandbox, removing $target  
completly is better, since then one got a predictable result, rather than  
a random outcome - what files were exactly installed and is it a working  
installation? My view is to try to have as little interactivity as  
possible, when avoidable.
