Yes, that's a command I've always missed.  I've added it to the trunk
now, bound to the `d' keystroke.

By the way, there's already a `vc-dir-delete-file' command, but it only
works for tracked files, and will notify the underlying VC.  So the new
command is called `vc-dir-delete-files-no-vc', which is a pretty awkward
name.  If anybody wants to change it -- please do.  :-)
