I recently had to undergo a very overdue clean-up. I literally had to delete hundreds of VM profiles by hand and then I could delete the lab profiles.
We need a feature that allows me to delete a lab profile with all associated VM profiles. I know this is risky so open a popup that says YOU ARE ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING VERY STUPID, ENTER YOUR PASSWORD TO ASSUME ALL RISK or whatever you find appropriate.

I recently had to do a cleanup as well and it wasted hours. This feature would help quite a bit. Along the same lines, I put in a new feature request to copy all associated files in a lab profile to a new folder. That would help us get rid of all of the extraneous files that are left after the used ones are moved. Both of these would save a lot of time and enable lab developers to keep things organized.
I agree, this feature would be useful. To elaborate, this feature should allow for granular deletion of (any || all) VM Profile(s), diff-disk(s), and even the storage, related to a specific LP.
The feature should be an 'advanced' feature, certainly not the de facto approach when deleting an LP.
