Most people play their favourite music. Being only two clicks away from deleting my favourite tracks (I presume there would be an "Are you sure" dialogue) would make me very nervous. I might click the button accidentally, and my puppy, Alfie, might leap on me, and click the "Yes" for me.
I would imagine that the developers would shudder at the prospect, given the millions of users. I know I wouldn't sleep nights in their position.
In WMP11, it is RMB, Find in Library, Click the highlighted track (perhaps, may not be necessary), press "Del".
i dont want a "Are you sure?" dialog. i want an instant "kill that file button and move on to the next song button". my time is too wasted trying to remove the songs that i dont want to keep. if i have imported it from CD there is no problem, because i can always reimport it, and if i purchased it then my music store should allow me to redownload that song. and if they dont and i was stupid enough not to back up my music collection before working through it with this button then i deserve to pay to get that song again.
thats why i say it wouldnt be bad if i had to go in and manually turn on this dangerous button in some options somewhere, and it would be even better if i had to do that every time i closed the player and restarted it. but if someone would build me a player with that kind of button in it i would finally be able to get my music sorted to just those that i want to immeadiately have on hand.
"kills them, kills them all..." -- As always, any and all help appreciated! :)

DawnTreader, you are not alone. Winamp can do this, via a hotkey enabled by a plug in called Playlist File Remover, available here:
However, this plug-in is a beta version that has problems (on my PC, it crashes Winamp). I think that it also needs updating for use on Vista and Win 7. You should read this thread in the Winamp forums about it's problems before trying it:
