	Hi,

	Sorry to bother you again. Actually, I've just realised that
it does not look good. It force the user to specify an action when
deleting a flow, which is not desirable.
	I would suggest to revert the patch. It's actually no needed,
as the buffer is never passed to str_to_flow() in the original code.
	I've attached a patch that revert it, but you probably don't
need it.
	Sorry again for the confusion...

	Jean
