I know this may be a niche request but it would be great to have a new end point / public method to be able to delete multiple files in Dropbox resulting from a search string, such as "delete all files that match *.myext"

3rd Party apps that connect to Dropbox usually have proprietary extensions and filenames and need to quickly and efficiently delete files without having to first issue a search and then a batch delete. That's two operations and two roundtrips I'd like to avoid.

I think this would benefit many developers given you could batch delete stuff such as "delete all *.txt" or "delete all files matching *_old.py" or whatever.

Please kindly consider adding this.
