We should not even try to _unlink_ submodule subdirectories; it would be _way_ too easy to lose data that way. Remember, submodules are a totally different beast from regular files. They can contain valuable, yet uncommitted data, that is not even meant to be committed. So you say if the submodule directories are empty, it is safe? Not so. They will never be empty: there is always .git/, and _that_ can contain valuable information that you do not want to throw away, too. Think of unpushed branches, for example. That would be _fatal_ if you rmdir() that for me.
