Storage vMotion leaving remnants of VMs on Datastore

As the title says, I've been storage vmotioning VMs around to balance out the IOs across LUNs and noticed that various files are being left on the original datastore. The attachment shows an example. Google produced nothing - is this a known issue? Any help would be appreciated.

the dump file and the vswp are rest of a VM-crash some time ago - just delete them
