First, the body of your post does not indicate what you'd like to be
different. Remember, those of us who read this as email have need superior
eyesight to read the title.
That aside, I agree in principle, regardless of what CMD.EXE does - by
default RMDIR /S ought to delete only what is in the physical tree, not its
logical extensions (those created as junctions or symlinks).
I completely agree!What you have stated, 'RMDIR /S ought to delete only what is in the physical tree', is precisely the default behavior I think RMDIR /S should have.
The symlinkd should be deleted, but the files residing within the symlinkd should not.
