No, it isn't. People should stop thinking that. Your User talk page is
not your personal inbox where you can press 'Del' to get rid of
something you don't like. It is a place where people can leave you
public(!) messages, and they should stay there.
Your User page is slightly more like your "home": Here you can have a
say in what DOESN'T go on it. However, even there you're still not free
to put anything to offend/annoy/irritate/insult other users, hurt the
project, or engage in anything illegal. Therefore, everyone has the
right to remove any such things from your User page, and you can't
really compare that with trespassing into your home.
