This will remove only packages not in db.

But I suppose that he meant:
if you have
pkg-1.0
pkg-1.1
pkg-1.2
pkg-2.0
in one channel

and if you not use snapshot it is waste of disk space for small shops to 
keep old rpm. So it would be nice to have something like:
   cleanup-channel -c somechannel --keep-only-latest-evr
