When removing a non empty directory with 'rmdir' I think the
"--ignore-fail-on-non-empty" argument is over the edge.  That is a lot
of typing when rm --recursive can do the same thing, and it is easier to
remember as well.  Maybe make the "--ignore-fail-on-non-empty" something
shorter like force or even recursive will work.
