Users often ask whether it would be possible to provide an efficient way to empty a collection without having to recreate it. Currently, deleting all documents is a burden because it results in replicating the _id of every document getting deleted.

Thanks to the recently introduced replicated truncate (collection & indexes), it looks like we could simply provide this feature by binding on it deleteMany without filter.
