Oh. And I think it's not ok that SharedFileSetDeleteAll() unconditionally does
SharedFileSetUnregister(). SharedFileSetUnregister() asserts out if there's no
match, but DSM based sets are never entered into filesetlist. So one cannot
have a non-DSM and DSM set coexisting. Which seems surprising.

Greetings,
