I think your understanding is accurate here. So we want repack to

Yes, that makes sense and sounds pretty safe.
So the right solution for us probably is to apply the patch Vicent
posted, set repack.honorpackkeep to false, and also have a cron job that
cleans up stale .keep files so that subsequent repacks clean it up.
