[virt-tools-list] deleting VMs from disk

Howdy,

I am using virt-manager-0.6.1-12.el5.x86_64 on CentOS 5.5 system. It seems like VM definitions (/etc/libvirt/qemu/*.xml) and VM disk files (/var/lib/libvirt/images/) do not get deleted even after deleting a VM using virt-manager. So the 'delete' action seems more like 'unregister' action for virt-manager. Is there option in virt-manager that deletes these VM files from the disk? Any config options that I need to look?

Thanks,
Shantanu.
