OK. Looking outside dired, there is already delete-directory, good for
empty directories. Maybe we add an optional parameter RECURSIVE?

A copy-directory function does not exist. What about allowing the first
parameter of copy-file to be a directory name? This would imply to copy
recursively.

Comments?
