How are dead users handled?

[fishilico]

What happens to the account of dead users? Right now, in the model there are both a field for active/disabled accounts and one for alive/dead users. This allows keeping active the accounts of dead users and disabling the accounts of alive user (without removing any data).

I suggest:

• By default, the account of someone who died is disabled. If someone who still needs the account (for example a widow) contacts us, we can re-enable the account.
• Right now, there are active accounts for dead users. Keep them as they are.

What do you think of this suggestion?

By the way, the death dates still need to be propagate back to the main DB in a way, in order to disable the subscription to the newsletter we send...
