dvc exp remove: should we make --queue work with -n and other flags ? #10639

Open

Description

@rmic

Currently using dvc exp remove --queue clears the whole queue (much like dvc queue remove).

dvc exp remove has some useful modifiers, such as -n to specify how many experiments should be deleted, or a list of the names of the experiments to remove.

These modifiers currently don't affect the behavior of the remove command on queued experiments.
The question is : should they ? and if so, how would that work ? and what would be the semantics when composing multiple modifiers together ? e.g.: what would the remove command do exactly if we composed --rev, --queue and -n together ?

This is an open question initially raised during a previous conversation with @shcheklein , see the full thread here : #10633 (comment))
