Panther has this feature, and Stuffit Deluxe has had it for over a year now. If you're still using Jaguar and don't have Stuffit Deluxe, this would be worth getting, but otherwise save your money.

Still necessary. - M Klahn

Actually, the new 'secure deletion' feature added to Panther only includes permanent deletion of files in your trash, and not the other methods of permanent deletion in SafeShred (whole volume, free disk space, etc.), nor does it give you any control over the overwrite bit-pattern or the number of overwrites, like SafeShred Xtreme does. This app goes way beyond what either Stuffit Deluxe or Panther allow you to do, making it a necessary app.
