The closest we have (vague) plans for is to allow a package to mark a
directory as exclusive, so that any content in that directory will be
removed, rather than salvaged, when the directory itself is removed.

That should be a fairly straightforward feature to add, once someone gets a
little less swamped, if it's a priority for you.
