Three reporting issues with new delete

Description

The new python based version of delete has at least three changes in reporting from the old version:

1) When delete is unable to delete a file it fails to report which file it failed to delete (potentially important if you're deleting multiple files and one fails) The old version used to say something like:

delete: foo: No such file or directory

for each file foo that failed to delete.

2) Same problem in reverse with undelete.

3) undelete is now verbose about the list of files it is undeleting, where as the old version only reported problems.

WONTFIX, this is now defined as a feature.
