I don't think so. these Web sites like Yahoo! do delete users.

Agreed.
The best approach would be to rename the user to some kind of
"username-removed" and block it indefinitely.
This discussion around deleting/renaming got me thinking. Is a history
kept of user renames?

The main problem with deleting users is that it
breaks all of their
contributions. Every contribution is made by a user - I don't know if
the code could handle that user not existing.
