Write Metadata: no option to have it clean up "JPG_ORIGINAL" files

Hello/Hi/Greetings,

Have a suggestion for the "Write Metadata" plugin.  I would love to have an option for the plugin to either be able to clean up the "JPG_ORIGINAL" files in the uploads folder, or to have it not create them in the first place when adding the metadata.  I didn't realize that it left those files, which led to my disk space usage's going way up and caused parts of my site to break when I hit the limit.  Once I removed those extra files, that returned everything to normal.  Would love to be able to quickly nip that problem in the bud rather than to have to go back into the directories to remove those extra files every time I run a process on those.
