Erase Roam block (including children) V1.2

erase_roam_block.clj

;; Warning: this plugin adds a "X Erase this block" item on both mobile and desktop Roam apps, but to activate Roam context menu on mobile, you need to install Victor Tabori's Long-tap script: https://gist.github.com/thesved/48cab2307cf0598fcc5cd37643d36cb4

;; 1) copy this block as children block `clojure` code block under parent containing {{[[roam/cljs]]}} anywhere on [[roam/cljs]] page
;; 2) confirm "Yes, I know what I am doing"
;; 3) restart Roam
;; 4) right-click on any block context menu (on a bullet)
;; 5) choose "X Erase this block" and confirm (attention: erases block including it's children; but do not worry: Cmd/Ctrl-Z works well)
