This would be very handy indeed to have an option on CC to add custom registry entries instead of just files and folders.
20 Pass file deletion?

CC Staffers: There is not point having the Gutmann method, It's old and unessercery unless you have a disk with MFM/RLL encoding. Today's disks that use PRML/EPRML encoding only need a few random passes from a decent PRNG to get the job done. It would be a lot better to allow the user to specify the number of random passes he or she wanted. Today the Gutmann method is pointless and in my opinion it is only used as a sales pitch.
And while we are on the deletion subject, the option to wipe free space & slack space would be nice (along with the random renaming of wiped files like Sexy_Girlfriends_Mum.JPG turns to just OPTIRQ or TPYOGD.QTP)
