Couldn't we just compare input and output? Or is that not safe
enough? E.g. in an over-simplistic form obtain dead pages via
something like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(let* ((html '("dir1/my-page1.html"
"dir2/my-page2.html"
"dir2/my-page3.html"
"dir2/my-page4.html"
"dir3/my-page4.html"))
(org '("dir1/my-page1.org"
"dir2/my-page2.org"
"dir3/my-page4.org"))
(html-sans-extensions (mapcar 'file-name-sans-extension html))
(org-sans-extensions (mapcar 'file-name-sans-extension org)))
(mapcar (lambda (x) (concat x ".html"))
(dolist (x org-sans-extensions html-sans-extensions)
(setq html-sans-extensions (remove x html-sans-extensions)))))
#+END_SRC
