I wonder whether it the replication of this data is made purposely
available to toolserver users. Deleted revisions should not be visible
to non-admins of a projects. Also, last time I checked, the table for
deleted images was not available. I think this 'd better be gone as
well.

Any system like this should require opt-in. It

and check for it with the API, then maintain a database of verified users.
Heck, we could even do this in a toolserver-wide process, with one opt-in
system for all tools, and a centralised system with an API for checking if a
user is verified.
