Federico Visi mentioned that it would be nice to be able to name temp variables with a prefix like /tmp, and then delete them with something like delete(/tmp/*). In order to avoid issues with implicit pattern matching like #421, my preference would be to have a different function, like deletep(/tmp/*), for example.
