Too late.
So you committed it anyway, despite asking for objections?
May I ask what the point was of your original message?
I didn't commit it right away, but waited a few hours. In case you didn't notice: The development of Drupal has been sped up in order to get 4.7 out of the door. The patch did also exist for a few days before I committed it.
The old user deletion may have been broken but it was far less destructive to data than this.
Yes, it was broken. Now I consider it fixed. It removes all traces of the user from the system. That is what most people will consider to be the purpose of a delete function. If you don't want that to happen, don't delete users but block them. Cheers, Gerhard
