I went ahead and merged this but, I'm not sure does it make
sense to allow a user to add a flow that can't be deleted? Or
delete a flow that wasn't ever added? I guess if the driver has
a reason to do this it doesn't hurt to allow it and I think the
code looks neater this way.

Also thanks for the other fixes I pulled the other 5 in as well
I'll re-submit the series after running some basic tests.
