IMHO what Dries suggested with the status column is simple. status = 1 is already in queries. status = 0 means unpublished, another status can mean deleted. No need to modify queries (just review existing ones for the status queries).

once again, let me reiterate that this is an insufficient solution--it only applies to nodes, and there are other forms of content that need to be addressed--not to mention that afaik node dependent tables don't have a status column, which could also cause problems.
