We could do this, but one place I hope we can catch this in future is in a 
script to check submitted patches [1][2] - that way we catch the error before 
it gets merged. In that context we can easily see if a reference is removed to 
a file in SRC_URI and check if there's a corresponding delete of the file 
(assuming no other recipes reference it).

Cheers,
Paul
