OK, so, let me go on the record as saying: I do not care *one bit*
about what the name is.  8-)

The nice thing about "KillNewFiles" is that it's short and sweet, IMO,
but I'm open suggestions.

How about:

        ImportNewFilesToVendorBranchOnly

That describes the behaviour, certainly.  And hey, it's less than half
an 80-column terminal wide!  8-)
