  I'm still not convinced this is a sustainable approach.
  
  1. The user has no control over the process
  2. Symlinks pointing to unmounted devices will be removed
  3. Database management is partially exposed on dbus
  4. Depending on user's setup this covers only ~80% (my system) of 
inconsistencies
  5. It is good to have a tool like this for diagnostic purposes, but the 
question is: Why do stale entries exist in the first place?
  6. Regenerating data can be very expensive (several hours) see 1)
  
  Because of those concerns I prefer to do cleaning with `baloodb` (D11753 
<https://phabricator.kde.org/D11753>) which is designed to give the user 
maximal control.
  I'm not requesting changes because I don't want to stand in the way. Others 
have to decide on this diff.
