The current situation is better than before Nevin's change, because
before Nevin's change, _some_ parameters got respected and others
didn't.  So depending on how you set expiry-target, B DEL would
respect it.  Now at least it's consistent.

But a variant that ignores expiry-target would be useful, I agree.
