Fundamentally, "deleting" stuff by moving it from the revision table to an
archive table is not the most durable way of doing it.  Using another bit of
the rev_deleted bitfield to indicate "deleted" would allow us to 'delete' just
by setting that bit, and duplicate traditional oversight (bug20290) by setting
the bit along with the "hide from admins" bit.  And it would facilitate
selective deletion, etc etc.  But of course, that would involve rewriting our
entire deletion and page management architecture (would have to stop deleting
rows from the page table on deletion, but instead mark them with a
page_deleted).  Any volunteers?  :D
