R. David Murray added the comment:

You are essentially asking that we have an option to make the windows behavior 
mirror the posix behavior?  (A read only file in a writable directory can be 
deleted in posix, since only the directory entry, not the file, is being 
deleted.)

That makes some sense to me.  I wonder what the windows devs think?
