Something I find super useful with AppCleaner, which is free, but not open source (which I would prefer to use, hence opening this feature request issue), is that it automatically detects when an application has been moved to the trash. When you delete an application without dragging it to the AppCleaner window, and even when the application is not open, it will automatically open a second or two after the other application you want to remove, is deleted. It will then let you delete all the other files like it would let you do if you had open AppCleaner or App Eraser, and drag the application to the window. I never think about using App Eraser to delete the application, so that feature would be an amazing addition to App Eraser.

Didn't even realise this was a feature in AppCleaner. Sounds like it would be helpful. Will take a look 👍
