context --purgeall filename does not delete all temporary files
Hi, `context --purgeall filename` behaves differently from `context --purgeall`. `context --purgeall` deletes all files with the name `*-temp-*`. I would have thought that `context --purgeall filename` will delete all files with the name `\jobname-temp-*` but it does not. Is there a way to delete the `\jobname-temp-*` files without requiring an extra `context --purgeall` run? This is needed for deleting extra files by `t-filter` module or deleting extra files generated by automatic EPS to PDF conversion (with figures.cachepaths.prefix="\jobname-temp"), etc. Thanks, Aditya

As an aside, I also noticed that in both mkiv and lmtx, mtx-context.lua has local extra_runfiles = { "^l_m_t_x_.-%.pdf$", } but graph-inc.lua has local defaultprefix = "m_k_i_v_" So, the default generated files are never deleted. Aditya

So, the default generated files are never deleted. i can add it ... originally that was for the temporary pdf jobname i think
