I just noticed a bug in this: when deleting a page part, while it give a 
confrimation, deletes the attached file/image/whatever, the page part is 
still there when the page is reloaded. This is true of any page part, 
not just attachments. I will try to see what is going on, but my skills 
are in, shall we say "development".
