Hey, Jesse.  There's been some discussion on this, and I think Carl's
position (sorry if I'm putting words in your mouth, Carl) was to just
settle on the tag "deleted" for this concept (of deleted messages) and
stick with it.  I tend to agree with that position.  I think it's better
to just pick a tag for this and stick with it, and "deleted" is as good
as any.  If we allow customization on this level then I think things are
going to get confusing and harder to support down the line.

Jesse, can you think of a reason why it would really be better to allow
customization for this?
