Hi,  
I am using JAVA Rest client 6.0 and looking for \_delete\_by\_query API implementation. Rest client support is not present. org.elasticsearch.client.ElasticsearchClient is not implemented by REST client.

```
BulkByScrollResponse response =
			    DeleteByQueryAction.INSTANCE.newRequestBuilder( client)
			        .filter(QueryBuilders.matchAllQuery()) 
			        .source(index)                                  
			        .get();
```
