Add/Check front end option to empty out all folders in a dandiset

[satra]

we should enable someway of emptying out all folders in a dandiset.

Are you describing a special "delete all assets" button? Would this be covered by a more traditional "select all" checkbox that would be followed by a standard "delete" action?

[satra]

it doesn't even have to be a checkbox. i think a delete icon for folders would be sufficient.

@satra - is this still a valid issue? I thought we don't want to have a delete icon on the LP

[satra]

This was more about delete control at the level of the file browser.

@satra, what's the use case for this feature? Is it to remove uploaded assets from a draft dandiset that were, e.g., included by accident?

@waxlamp - indeed this was to be able to do things which were not possible with the cli. however, the cli does have some delete/sync options now. i would suggest closing this in favor of a richer file view/manage component that would also allow more complex search/upload/select/delete/download etc.,.
