Description
I thought that this would be a nice idea to remove unwanted files also orphaned file from your computer, that take up unwanted space for simply no reason. Ex. apt-get autoremove
I will also like it to automatically launch when your hard disk is full if possible.

This is a Windows-like idea (like empty TEMP directories). I think Ubuntu doesn't need such a thing.

Already implemented: sudo apt-get autoremove
Win's tool to free up space takes a shotgun approach to temporary files only. If your disk is full, use Disk Analyzer to find out why, and change the settings on that program - or unstall it.
The biggest hogs I had were my browser cache, and a corrupt Tracker index. Easy to fix once I knew.

I'd like something that would wipe clean my free space, kinda along the same lines.
