Such .swp files should never exist if you always exit Vim normally.
Only when Vim crashes or gets terminated abnormally will you have such files
hanging around.
Also there may be swap files associated with a DIFFERENT Vim instance,
especially if you or others edit files on a network location using Vim from
multiple computers.
Deleting them automatically might interfere with other Vim instances. I think
you will always want a confirmation step at least before deleting swap files.
I know all that. But you may get junk swap files hanging around
if you inadvertently compress a directory containing files which
are currently open in Vim at compression time. Stupid, but there
you have it!
