But the pkg_delete(1) manpage currently says:

     -c              Delete extra configuration file, mentioned as
                           @extra file
                     in the packing-list.

Database data isn't the same as configuration files. (At least for 
me...) So if we really want the behaviour you're speaking of, the 
manpage needs an update.
