We need this for security and compliance - deleting the index and recreating it causes a scenario in production whereby the index may not always exist when a new document needs to be inserted into it.
At least with a delete all, it will delete all the existing documents and either create an exclusive lock to pause new inserts or allow inserts which are held in a separate transaction.

Any progress on this?
