I guess I could make due with using Python.

Kern can you comment on the estimate time of implementation for this
feature?

Nothing implemented as far as I know.

As long as your SD and DIR run on the same machine it seems to be rather

straightforward to use a python event called after a volume is purged. 
Unfortunately, the manual doesn't show me one of those, although the 
important information to delete the volume is already there:

"The following attributes are read/write within the Director for the job

object.
...
VolumeName
     After a Volume has been purged, this attribute will contain the 
name of that Volume. At other times, this value may have no meaning." 
quoting the devel manual.

Since I never actually played with python scripting yet, I'm not sure 
that there is an event where the VolumeName attribute is valid.

So, I'd say it's time to wait for the necessary event, or to fall back 
to some scripting magic.
