Basically the only reason I keep having to use file mode is because this feature doesn't exist. Eventually the PVR branch will get merged and this feature will have to get added (all PVR and DVRs ask if you want to keep a show after watching it)

There the filecleaner add-on that deletes watched according to rules but with no prompt.

Not me. You should at least be able to turn it off

I am new to Kodi and given I have lived at the Unix/Linux shell command line since 1987, everything I do has to somehow come back to command line and pure ASCII text wherever possible.
Here is the extract of a script that I have started using that might help? (sorry I am on here years later):
=-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------=
#!/bin/bash
#
## Create a kodi watched shows text file
#
cd /tmp
cp /home/.kodi/userdata/Database/MyVideos90.db /tmp/watched.db
sqlite3 watched.db << END
.output watched.txt
select strFileName from files where playCount > 0;
.exit
END
=-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------=
Hope this helps - I have implemented a cron on my Linux system to do this so all I do is watch the shows, produce the text list, and then have another script pick it up and move the files to a 'watched' directory (folder).

What if I deleted my current copy of kodi and reinstalled a new copy? Would I be able to find previously watched movies and tv show episodes?
