   Think a bit more, it will break the compatibility by changing the behavior 
of ExpireSnapshot procedure. Some users already relies on a combination of 
`delete` and `expire-snapshot` to remove data permanently. The change will 
break the assumption. To make sure CDC view work well,
   1. Users need to keep more snapshots
   2.  Providing an option to ignore the deleted data files, so that the CDC 
process can continue. We will lose the changelogs for deleted records though.
