Permanently deleting closed file requests

I would like to permanently delete closed file requests. An identical issue was opened and marked as solved 2 years ago, but the underlying issue was never actually addressed.

I wanted to +1 this previous issue, but the reply button wasn't working. Moreover, because the previous issue is already (erroneously) marked as solved, I figured I might get more traction by opening a new discussion.

    Permanently delete closed file requests.   A reasonable request. I thought Dropbox would help organize files. Having no ability to delete closed file request is not a good file management strategy. Not to mention taking up server space!

    Please allow us to clear out old closed requests. Not being able to clean these out makes a mess of my Dropbox.
