I assume that the users locking their account will have erased their email address. I think an appropriate metaphor to setting your password to "0" is "locking up the house and throwing away the key".	[reply]

Is this just a stop-gap to a better solution in the future? It seems to me that the long term the goal should be to create a "Disable" button that erases that users real name, email address, and password. And maybe that users home node for good measure? Elda Taluta; Sarks Sark; Ark Arks	[reply]

No. You can set all these yourself, and as this is a one-time thing, I don't see any need to spend time on making this functionality into a button.	[reply]

Would it also remove the information from google cache and the wayback machine, and distribute “corrected” copies of the old printed newspapers to everyone's homes?	[reply]
