Should we remove ability to turn on user and bug deletion?

User deletion has improved a lot with bug 119485. On user deletion,
the admin is presented with individual, detailed warnings. Short of
deleting bugs, related entities are deleted along with the user.
Leaving the bugs undeleted will cause db inconsistency when overriding
the corresponding warning. Maybe it's an idea to go for the
never-inconsistencies way, but I don't think this warrants to make
user deletion impossible.
