looks good. 

not sure about (2) which might probably work, but probably is error, so i'd 
rather had a fatal error thrown and the user deal with it than silently use the 
first listed. who guarantees that google always returns the same file first?

wrt. (4) afair most backends ignore deletion problems, maybe log warn about 
them only. but as we've now established that there is a possibility of multiple 
instances on the backend, the delete routine should probably try to delete all 
off them, no?
