Set note attributes to save which crons were added.

Hello,

I'm currently writing a script that creates various crontabs based on an attribute like so:

paths.each do |path|
  cron "my-cookbook-#{path}" do
    command "/usr/sbin/task #{path}"
  end
end

This works fine. However, if I remove something from that path, it isn't actually removed in the crontab, since Chef has no way of knowing that I "removed" it from my array. How are people handling this? I could manually delete the cron, but that seems backwards.
