mod_tombstones: Remember deleted accounts #1307 Presence subscriptions are normally revoked on account deletion, which informs the contact. Sometimes this notification gets lost e.g. due to s2s problems. The accounts JID may also be present e.g. in MUC affiliations, chat group member lists, pubsub subscriptions or other systems. These may grant privileges which would fall to someone who creates the same account again, which this module is meant to prevent.
