      Will define (provided we can find someone to drive the effort - James? Sean Mcilvenna?) an implementation guide for test server management that includes $expunge as well as the ability to "restore" history and similar functions. Can look at possibly migrating the operation into core if it becomes clear it's necessary for GDPR.

      In some cases, the resources need to be permanently purged from a FHIR server. Currently early adopters lack this mechanism and it's critically importnat to move a system from test into production. Testing a system will create incomplete/invalid data that needs to be purged.

      The purge operation could create an audit event. The purged data could be recorvered from a db backup.
